In fact, 92% of start-ups, 60% of medium-sized businesses and more than 5 million businesses use Gmail.gmail

Παρ 'όλα αυτά, το μεγαλύτερο ποσοστό των συζητήσεων σχετικά με την ασφάλεια επικεντρώνονται γύρω από τη Microsoft. Αυτό είναι απολύτως θεμιτό, αλλά ήρθε η ώρα να μιλήσουμε και για το Gmail που παραμένει μια απίστευτα δημοφιλής υπηρεσία ηλεκτρονικού ταχυδρομείου για επιχειρήσεις όλων των μεγεθών. Επιπλέον, όσον αφορά στο Gmail, oι επιτιθέμενοι δεν στοχεύουν μόνο το ηλεκτρονικό ταχυδρομείο, αλλά το Google Workspace συνολικά, συμπεριλαμβανομένων δημοφιλών εφαρμογών όπως τα Έγγραφα και Διαφάνειες (Docs και ). Χωρίς ασφάλεια πλήρους σουίτας, το Google Workspace κινδυνεύει.

Despite the fact that he is doing well from other solutions, the rates we find using Check Point Threat Miss Calculator still show many attacks. For example, in a 500-position organization, where the average user sees about 20 emails a day, the results are as follows:

The numbers show almost three lost attacks per user, per month.

3444

 

Ή in an organization with 6.500 employees:

You can definitely see the problem.
