What Businesses Today Need to Know About Modern and Traditional Spam Protection

There has always been unwanted email in the inbox. Spam is still changing, even though cybersecurity has come a long way. This makes it one of the most persistent threats that businesses face. These messages can be anything from annoying but not harmful ads to dangerous phishing and fraud attempts that try to get into systems or steal private information. IT teams have to deal with this constant flood every day to keep their systems safe.

At Epis Technology, we help businesses set up safe and effective Synology MailPlus environments. These environments offer multiple layers of protection against modern email threats while making administration easier. Spam now makes up almost half of the 320 billion emails sent every day. To keep their communication channels safe, businesses need to use both old and new ways to protect themselves.

A Growing Load on IT Managers

Companies can get tens of thousands of spam emails in just one month, and many of them are harmful. Synology’s MailPlus solution already blocks a lot of spam automatically, but keeping it safe still needs careful setup, tuning, and monitoring. Epis Technology Provides a Reliable Email Infrastructure with Synology MailPlus 

Epis Technology comes in here. We help businesses improve email security, set up advanced authentication standards, and optimize spam filters by designing and managing Synology MailPlus deployments. As we explain in our guide on how modern email security has strengthened against spam, this approach keeps users safe without putting too much stress on IT teams.

Core Technologies Protecting Against Bad Actors

Synology MailPlus uses the best authentication and encryption methods in the business to fight cybercriminals:

• SPF stands for “Sender Policy Framework.”
• DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM)
• DMARC stands for Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance.
• DANE stands for DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities.

These technologies check who sent the email, look for tampering, and stop fake emails from getting to users.

Epis Technology sets up and checks these protocols for its clients, making sure that their domains are safe from phishing campaigns, impersonation attempts, and business email compromise (BEC) attacks. These protocols might not work to protect the organization if they aren’t set up correctly, so it’s important to get expert help.

Even with these protections, threats can get around regular filters by using hacked accounts or advanced spear-phishing attacks. This is why email security today needs more than one layer of protection.

Defense in depth is a modern security need.

One security measure isn’t enough. Synology MailPlus has a filtering system with many layers that includes:

• DNSBL blocklists, like Spamhaus and RBL
• Heuristic study
• Finding suspicious behavior
• Keyword filtering based on patterns

Making your own rules is also good for businesses. Epis Technology helps clients create custom filtering rules based on their industry, how users act, and their risk profile. This greatly improves the accuracy of detection.

Training is still important

Technology alone can’t get rid of all risk. Workers need to learn how to:

• Notice patterns in emails that seem strange
• Don’t open attachments or links that aren’t safe.
• Tell someone about threats right away

As part of its managed security service, Epis Technology offers user awareness training to lower the risk of human-based vulnerabilities. 

Bitdefender for Synology MailPlus gives you extra protection.

To protect against threats that change quickly, Synology MailPlus now comes with Bitdefender Antispam, which gives businesses access to:

• Detecting threats with machine learning
• Spam intelligence from all over the world in real time
• Better filtering for phishing and malware
• Updates for automated threat response

This add-on lets you filter like a pro with very little help from you.
