In today’s cybersecurity landscape, email remains the number one attack vector used by cybercriminals to infiltrate corporate networks. Despite the emergence of new communication platforms, email is the primary gateway for phishing, malware, and sophisticated Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks. At Aufiero Informática, with our consolidated trajectory since 2003 in Latin America, we have observed that even organizations with advanced firewalls are vulnerable if they do not protect email communication specifically. Together with Heimdal Security, we offer a cutting-edge solution that not only filters spam but also fights identity fraud and account compromise with artificial intelligence.
The Growing Danger of Business Email Compromise (BEC)
Business Email Compromise, or BEC, is one of the most financially costly threats to modern companies. Unlike common spam emails, these attacks are highly targeted and often contain no malicious attachments, making them invisible to traditional filters. The attacker typically impersonates an executive or a legitimate vendor to request bank transfers or sensitive information. At Aufiero Informática, we advise our clients on the importance of having tools that analyze the context and intent of the message, and not just the presence of known viruses, to stop these scams before they reach the inbox.
How Does Heimdal Transform Email Security?
Heimdal Security’s Email Fraud Prevention solution, distributed by Aufiero Informática, uses a multi-layered detection system that goes far beyond conventional solutions. It uses over 125 scanning vectors to analyze every incoming email in real-time. This includes domain reputation analysis, verification of SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records, and an artificial intelligence engine that detects anomalies in language and writing patterns suggesting impersonation. This technology allows companies to operate with the confidence that their communications are authentic and secure.
Integration of Security and Operational Productivity
One of the greatest benefits of implementing Heimdal’s email solutions through Aufiero Informática is the removal of friction for the end user. Many security tools overburden employees with unnecessary warnings or block legitimate emails, affecting productivity. Heimdal’s approach is silent yet relentless. It integrates perfectly with platforms like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, providing an additional layer of security that protects corporate identity and financial assets without interrupting the daily workflow of collaborators.
