Epis Technology has made modern email security stronger by adding new and old ways to fight spam.
Email is still one of the most common ways for businesses to communicate, but it is also one of the most common ways for hackers to get into computers. Organizations need to balance the daily flow of email with strong security tools, even though threats change from simple spam to more sophisticated phishing and credential theft. Spam still makes up almost half of all email traffic around the world, and even one bad email getting through can put an entire network at risk.
Advanced filtering and authentication methods are very important for businesses that want reliable, long-term security. This is where Synology MailPlus comes in. Epis Technology has improved it by deploying and optimizing it to provide a modern, multi-layered defense against spam and email-based threats.
The Growing Problem of Email Threats
Every day, almost 320 billion emails go across the internet, and up to half of them could be spam. These messages can be anything from simple junk mail to advanced phishing scams that try to steal your credentials or install ransomware. Even though detection technologies are getting better, attackers keep changing.
Every month, Synology’s own environment flags tens of thousands of harmful emails. This shows how the threat landscape is always changing and getting worse. Companies that don’t have a good email security plan are more likely to be hacked, lose money, and have their operations shut down.
How Epis Technology Makes Synology MailPlus Deployments Stronger
Epis Technology helps businesses set up Synology MailPlus with enterprise security frameworks, making sure that email systems include:
- Correct authentication methods
- Optimized server settings
- Rules that work to block spam
- Monitoring threats before they happen
- Advanced add-ons like Bitdefender Antispam
Businesses can get a strong email system that can handle the complexities of modern cyber threats by using Epis Technology’s professional configuration and support services.
MailPlus has built-in defenses against key authentication.
Synology MailPlus has a number of industry-standard protocols that check the validity of emails and stop people from pretending to be someone else. When Epis Technology puts these defenses in place and keeps them up to date, they make a strong authentication layer:
1. SPF (Sender Policy Framework)
Makes sure that outgoing mail comes from servers that are allowed to do so.
2. DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail)
Cryptographically signs messages that are sent out to stop tampering.
3. DMARC
Tells receiving servers what to do with emails that don’t pass authentication.
4. DANE
Checks the identity of servers and stops interception by using DNS records.
When used together, these protocols make it much harder for people to fake emails, phishing attempts, and impersonate someone else’s email account, all of which are common ways that business email compromise attacks start. Organizations make sure these tools are set up correctly and watched all the time by using Epis Technology’s knowledge of DNS, domain policy, and authentication alignment.
Blocklists and manual rules are extra layers of protection.
One line of defense isn’t enough. MailPlus adds more layers:
Global Blocklists (DNSBL, RBL, and SBL)
Messages from IPs and domains that are known to be malicious are automatically blocked.
Filters for Custom Admin
For more precise control, admins can make rules based on keywords or patterns.
Teaching Users
A security system isn’t complete without employees who know what they’re doing. Training helps employees spot links that look suspicious, senders that seem strange, and classic signs of phishing.
Epis Technology helps businesses set up and keep these filtering rules in place. They also give advice on how employees should use email and how to keep it clean.
New Advanced Defense: Bitdefender Antispam Add-On
Synology recently added Bitdefender Antispam to MailPlus Server to help protect against more advanced threats.
Epis Technology helps businesses set up and fine-tune this advanced layer by providing:
- Spam detection that uses machine learning
- Scoring reputation in real time
- Analysis and classification of content
- Updates that happen automatically without the need for IT help
- Protection against malware, phishing emails, and spear-phishing
This “set-and-forget” service makes detection much more accurate and takes a lot of work off of IT teams. It’s perfect for companies that don’t have dedicated cybersecurity staff.
The Only Reliable Strategy Is Defense-in-Depth
Modern threats need more than one layer of protection. A full plan includes:
- Authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, DANE)
- Blocklists for the whole world
- Rules for custom filtering
- Detection with AI (Bitdefender)
- Training for staff to be aware
- Ongoing monitoring and change
Epis Technology helps businesses create and keep up this complete ecosystem, making sure that their Synology MailPlus environment stays one step ahead of hackers and changes as new threats arise.
Email threats are always there, change over time, and cost a lot. A modern security posture needs to include user education, authentication, filtering, threat intelligence, and AI-driven detection. Synology MailPlus gives you these tools, and Epis Technology makes them even better by setting them up, managing them, and creating security plans that fit your needs.
Businesses get a secure, reliable email platform with Epis Technology that keeps spam, phishing, and bad actors out while keeping communication going smoothly throughout the company.
