Secure e-mail transmission in the cloud is gaining in importance

Share post

In 2021, email will be 50 years old. During this time, it has long established and proven itself as the main means of communication in everyday business. This will not change in 2022 either - on the contrary: by 2025, general email usage will increase rapidly.

In view of the fact that many companies are currently moving their office and e-mail applications to the cloud, the importance of e-mail security is becoming more important again. Because hackers don’t stop at applications like Microsoft 365 either. With professional solutions, however, a high level of security can also be guaranteed here and additional added value can be achieved through extended functionalities.

Email is at risk, even on Microsoft 365

"Wait a minute, I'll just send the information by e-mail!" Most of you will be familiar with this sentence. Especially when things have to be done quickly, you often just send an e-mail, for example to colleagues, customers or partners. This means that e-mail occasionally has almost the character of a chat. It is therefore all the more important that secure shipping is as easy as possible - especially in combination with a cloud implementation of the solution.

Cloud solutions for e-mails: simple and secure

Cloud solutions are characterized by easy commissioning, since on-premises installation is no longer required. In addition, modern cloud solutions offer extensive processes, central and meaningful logs and analysis tools for troubleshooting. If the cloud-based e-mail security solutions also bring S/MIME certificates from internationally recognized CAs (Certificate Authority) for the e-mail signature, no further investments are required. This is especially relevant for smaller companies. Another advantage: Security features such as email encryption, automatic certificate management, digital signatures and large file transfer can also be integrated into cloud solutions and thus enrich them. Some of these solutions already include leading filter technologies against spam, viruses, malware and phishing as well as a central e-mail disclaimer management.
