Email is the main source of communication for all businesses, and one where employees go about their daily routine sending, receiving and opening emails and attachments with no thought of the potential risk that unsecured emails can do to themselves and the franchise.
Email security is a critical risk for many companies and franchisees alike, which is why it’s important to ensure that your email security is up to date and employees are well educated. Hackers can gain access to your company’s network through employees’ emails. An unwanted email can contain an exploit that gives hackers unlimited access to your computer and your organization’s network. In fact, more than 90 percent of all attacks originate with emails.
