Minsait, the Indra business unit that tackles the challenges posed by digital transformation to companies and institutions, and FireEye, have teamed up to develop FEE(P) Mail Defense, a solution capable of protecting e-mail from the most sophisticated attacks.

The solution combines Minsait's capacity to analyze e-mail and manage incidents, with the efficiency of Fire Eye's Email Threat Prevention (ETP) tool that is capable of detecting highly complex attacks.

From the cloud, the tool analyzes e-mails before the recipient opens these in the inbox. Therefore, companies are protected from Ransomware infections which encode information to request ransom, and from Advanced Persistent Threats, that steal data or alter business processes without being detected.

This service, available 24x7, is adapted to companies with corporate e-mails in the cloud as well as those that have their e-mails at their own installations. FEE(P) Mail Defense grants companies access to state-of-the-art intelligence and technology, without requiring an investment in own systems, which commonly become rapidly obsolete.

According to data of the National Cryptologic Centre, 75% of cases of infections at companies occur through highly personalized, deceitful e-mail messages. This technique, known as Spear Phishing, exploits social engineering techniques to direct attacks at persons with relevant positions or who have access to key systems. Given their use of highly advanced malware developed with great amounts of resources and effort, usual security measures are incapable of detecting these types of attacks.
