Email Threats

4

Spam Problem

75-90% of Email is Spam 1

● Spam has increased fivefold in the last couple of years.2

● Zombies and botnets make it easier for spammers and are now responsible for most spam

● Spam is evolving with new techniques like image spam

● Even if blocked from the inbox, letting spam into the network uses bandwidth, storage, and other network resources

Virus Problem

And the number of viruses can add up.Viruses are only in about 2-6% of emails.1

HOWEVER, the impact can be substantial.

Instead of the mass virus attacks of the past, hackers are using viruses for monetary gain (often using more targeted attacks)

Examples

• Bot code that allows hackers to use the victim’s machine to send spam or fraudulent emails

• Key-logging Trojans that collect confidential information

Phishing Problem

• Email fraud made up 4% of email in 20061

• Phishing emails spoof legitimate companies and attempt to steal information

• Phishing affects both individuals and corporations with thousands of unique phishing threats sent out every month

• Companies need to protect themselves from loss of confidential information and potential liability

Targeted Attacks

Unique attacks tailored for the targeted organization

• Viruses (such as ransom attacks)

• Spyware in Email

• Corporate Spear Phishing

• Directory Harvest Attack (DHA)

– Tries numerous variations of possible email addresses using a company’s domain

– Goal = to acquire a valid email list for the company

– Can use the list later for a targeted attack, such as a phishing, virus, spyware, or spam attack

• Bounced Mail Attacks

– Spoofs a legitimate company by inserting its domain as the email sender

– When the receiving servers bounce the email, the bounced emails are sent to the spoofed company, flooding the server and tainting the reputation of the innocent company

8

Data Privacy & Protection

• Regulatory ComplianceRegulations impose mandates on data protection or privacyCan affect email and other digital communication

• Corporate GovernanceInternal standards or policies that a company uses to govern itselfIn this case policies for appropriate use of messaging

• Loss of Confidential InformationProtection against data leakage, whether intentional, or inadvertent

14

Network Reputation Services

Network Reputation Services • Global: Verifies IP addresses against the world’s largest, most trusted reputation

database

• Dynamic: Identifies new spam and phishing sources, stopping even zombies and botnets when they first emerge

Fights off spam at the source • Before it enters the gateway

• Uses email samples and sender histories to accurately determine the reputation

• Leaves only a small percentage of mail to be filtered by the traditional scanning

• Saves bandwidth, storage, and other network resources

15

IP Profiler

Customer-Specific Reputation Services

Spam

Virus

DHA Attacks

Bounced Mail

Customers set thresholds

• Duration emails from an IP Address are monitored

• Percentage of emails from that IP Address that contain the email threat

• Total mails that need to be received to be considered a relevant sample

• Triggering actions – what happens when these thresholds are met (block temporarily or block permanently)

Provides customer-specific reputation services by blocking IP addresses that exceed set thresholds—also keeps threats completely off the network

Trend Micro Anti-Spam Composite Engine

What is Trend Micro Anti-Spam Composite Engine?Trend Micro anti-spam composite engine uses a “cocktail” approach to block both spam and phishing emails.

– Statistical Analysis

– Advanced Heuristics

– Signature Filtering

– Whitelists/Blacklists

– Multilingual Spam Detection

– Patent-Pending Image Spam Detection Technology

Industry Proven Technology

Install base of over 25 million seats over the past four years

17

Image Spam Detection

Patent-PendingImage Spam Detection

Boils down to the core of the email—for example, strips out background and text colors, dimensions, and other randomized elements

Enables just a few main signatures to stop all of the numerous variations

18

Award-Winning Antivirus and Anti-Spyware

Antivirus – Email and Attachments

• Pattern files

• Zero-day protection

– Zero-day protection applies heuristics to detect unknown viruses

– For example, IntelliTrap stops viruses based on the tools used to hide the virus and not the virus code itself--no signature is required

• Anti-spyware and other malware protection for email

• ActiveAction provides automated responses to viruses, spyware, and other malware

19

Anti-Phishing

Technologies specific to phishing• Phishing signatures• Heuristics for phishing indicators• Reputation services block known

phishers• Embedded URL reputation

Customers can set policy rules for phishing emails

20

Protection from Targeted Attacks

• Technologies that prevent known attacks will not work (for example, signatures and reputation services)

• Instead we apply predictive techniques--zero-day protection, heuristics, and behavior analysis

- Antivirus = prevents virus attacks aimed at specific organizations (for example, ransom attacks)

- Anti-spyware = stops the more targeted spyware attacks sent through email.

- DHA and bounced mail protection (IP Profiler) = protects against bounced mail attacks anddirectory harvest attacks, which can result inadditional targeted attacks

- Anti-phishing = blocks corporate spear phishing

21

Data Privacy and Protection

Enforce Content Compliance• Minimize legal liability • Comply with regulations (SOX, HIPAA, …)• Support internal messaging standards• Prevent data leakage

• Antivirus stops any malware sent by email that could potentially damage or corrupt data.

• Anti-phishing helps to prevent the theft of confidential information.

• Anti-spyware stops the potentially more targeted attacks sent by email which attempt to steal corporate data.

• Flexible content filtering enables the efficient inspection of messages to ensure that data does not improperly leave the organization.

22

Content Filtering

Inbound and outbound content filters scan emails and attachments

Specify Protected Content

− Attachment characteristics (true file type, name, size, etc.)

− Keywords, lexicons, and preset dictionaries

− Customize with Boolean and regular expressions

Select Authorized Senders or Recipients

− Company-wide, department, group, or individual

Designate Appropriate Enforcement

− Delete, quarantine, notify, postpone, pass, encrypt with TLS, or archive

− Add company specific legal disclaimers to email text

23

Easy Management

• High performance

• Highly scalable solution

• Single Web-based management console

• Centralized policy, quarantine, archive, logging, and reporting

Product Levels

Threat protection is packaged in different levels

* IMHS Standard = complete inbound protection with streamlined managementIMHS Advanced = granular access and control for inbound and outbound traffic with flexible content filtering, similar to IMSS and IMSA

34

IP Profiler

Firewall against DHA and Bounced Mail Attacks

IP Profiler applies additional information to block directory harvest attacks

• Number of recipients that can be listed in an email

• Number of non-existing recipients (this technology is LDAP integrated)

IP Profiler also conducts other behavioral

analysis to block DHAs

Back to Main IP Profiler Slide

35

IP Profiler – How It Works

1. Records all inbound and outbound SMTP traffic

2. Reports records on email traffic from each IP Address to a database

3. The emails are scanned by the anti-spam composite engine

4. The results of the scanning engine are reported to the database

5. The traffic from the IP Address is profiled by cross referencing the recorded traffic with the scanning results

For example, total messaging from the IP Address vs. spam messages from the IP Address

6. This outcome is compared against the user thresholds

7. If the outcome exceeds the thresholds, the trigger action is applied Block Permanently (SMTP 5xx) or Block Temporarily (SMTP 4xx)
