Advanced Business Email Compromise Protection

Leading MTSP Helps Block Email-Based Attacks, the Preferred Vector for Hackers

BILLINGS, MT - Connect Telephone & Computer Group, a leading managed technology services provider (MTSP), announced today that the company is deploying the latest in advanced email and account protection technology to help small and mid-sized businesses defend against Business Email Compromise, phishing and other increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks that arrive through the inbox.

Email remains the preferred vector for most social engineering breaches, and Business Email Compromise has become one of the most common forms of email-based fraud. Connect Telephone & Computer Group recommends a layered approach that inspects every incoming message for impersonation and dangerous context before it reaches the inbox, then watches the account itself for the unusual logins, forwarding rules and hijacked sessions that follow a successful break-in.
