Symantec Email Security.cloud

Broadcom Symantec Email Security.cloud is an enterprise cloud-delivered secure email gateway service engineered to protect cloud-hosted and on-premises mailboxes from targeted email cyberattacks, phishing, ransomware, impersonation fraud, and data leakage. Operating as an always-on cloud perimeter service, Email Security.cloud filters inbound and outbound email traffic in the cloud, scrubbing malicious content before it ever touches customer corporate networks or cloud mail systems like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.

The service utilizes Symantec Global Intelligence Network telemetry, processing billions of emails daily to identify and block emerging threat campaigns. Key technological capabilities include Skeptic heuristic analysis for identifying zero-day malware, click-time link evaluation that checks destination websites when users click them, impersonation controls to defeat business email compromise schemes, and policy-based email encryption. Furthermore, integrated cloud data loss prevention scanning inspects outbound messages and attachments for sensitive information, automatically enforcing corporate compliance rules.

Symantec Email Security.cloud connects easily with cloud email suites including Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, as well as on-premises Microsoft Exchange servers, with central policy administration through the Symantec Enterprise Cloud console. Common use cases include securing Microsoft 365 email from advanced phishing threats, preventing credential harvesting campaigns, automating outbound email privacy compliance, and ensuring business email continuity. Organizations deploying Email Security.cloud benefit from minimal management overhead, 99.999% service availability SLAs, and comprehensive compliance alignment with HIPAA, GDPR, and PCI-DSS.
