Cisco Secure Email, formerly known as Cloud Email Security, is a solution designed to provide comprehensive threat defense against email-based attacks, which are the leading vector for security breaches. It detects, blocks, and remediates threats in incoming emails while protecting an organization’s brand and sensitive information through features like end-to-end encryption.

Cisco Secure Email employs various strategies to combat phishing, including real-time URL analysis that automatically blocks access to risky links and newly infected sites. It also utilizes advanced threat intelligence from Talos and machine learning models to authenticate email identities and detect fraudulent senders, thereby protecting against Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks.

Cisco Secure Email offers flexible deployment options, including cloud, virtual, on-premises, or hybrid setups. Organizations can also migrate to the cloud in phases, allowing them to choose the approach that best fits their operational needs.
