Email Security for the Energy Industry
The energy industry supplies essential power to people around the globe. This critical infrastructure protects health and safety, so it's vital to reduce cyber threats that could enter system networks and disrupt power supply.
Among the many priorities in a cyber defense strategy, companies in the energy industry must maximize email security to maintain system integrity. OPSWAT MetaDefender delivers a zero-trust approach to email security, offering advanced protection against cyber threats targeting energy infrastructure.
Delivering Critical Protection Across Sectors
Not only must energy companies defend against cyberattacks and industrial espionage tactics through email, but they must also strive to maintain compliance with regulations like the North American Electric Reliability Corporation Critical Infrastructure Protection (NERC CIP).
Implementing comprehensive email security solutions that take these regulations into account keeps sensitive data safe and allows operations to run smoothly. When energy industries implement advanced security, they maintain trust among those who rely on them for power.
OPSWAT offers advanced email security for energy providers, including:
A Zero-Trust Email Security Approach
The OPSWAT MetaDefender Email Security solution prevents advanced phishing, malware, and other file-based exploits from compromising an email system. It provides layers of defense beyond what other security vendors can technologically offer in order to close security gaps. These capabilities include:
Zero-day malware can bypass detection by a single or few anti-malware engines. Varied anti-malware engine outbreak response times, due to location or market focus, increase risk of breach
- Detection of zero-day malware and advanced threats using up to 30 anti-malware engines with heuristics & ML
- Reduction of false positives with multiple engines
for Top 10,000 Threats
with Multiple Anti-Malware Engines
Unknown and zero-day file-based exploits bypass native email security solutions
- Detects and neutralizes hidden threats that bypass standard defenses
- Rebuilds all file content
- Deep image sanitization
- Steganography prevention
- Metadata/headers validation
- Hyperlink analysis
Against Spoofed & Complex Attacks
Checked and Protected
Phishing attacks bypass native email security using URL hiding techniques, increasing the risk of social engineering and credential harvesting
- Multilayered detection with advanced heuristics and machine learning algorithms
- Time-of-Click analysis for link reputation checks from 30+ online sources
- QR code scanning and rewrite
Spam and Phishing Attacks
Link Reputation Checks
with Time-of-Click Analysis
Unknown malware bypasses signature-based detection and remains a threat when analyzed offline
- Dynamically detect malicious behavior inline
- Rapid and in-depth threat analysis service
- Focused on targeted attack detection and IOC extraction
a Traditional Sandbox
than Other Sandboxes
Sensitive data is leaked and regulatory compliance violations occur
- Protected health information (PHI) and PII in Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) files
- Detect adult content in images and toxic language in text, and Not Safe for Work (NSFW) context
- Leverage Optical Character Recognition (OCR) in images
- Automatically redact identified sensitive information
