What is business email compromise and how does Managed Email Security stop it?

Business email compromise is a fraud attack where criminals impersonate a trusted person such as your CEO or a vendor to trick staff into sending money or sharing credentials. Managed Email Security uses behavioral analysis and domain authentication checks to detect these requests and quarantine them before they reach the intended recipient.

Will Managed Email Security work with our existing Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace email?

Yes. Managed Email Security layers on top of Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace without replacing them. We configure the mail routing and DNS records so all inbound mail passes through Managed Email Security filtering before landing in your existing inboxes. Setup typically takes less than one business day with no downtime.

How does email archiving help with compliance?

Tamper-proof archiving creates an immutable, searchable copy of every message sent and received. This satisfies retention rules under HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and legal discovery requirements. If a regulator or attorney requests email records, we can produce them quickly without involving your staff.

What happens if a phishing email does get through?

No filter is perfect, which is why we pair Managed Email Security with security awareness training and incident response coverage. If a suspicious message lands, your staff can report it with one click. We investigate, retract the message where possible, and update filtering rules to block the same pattern going forward.

Does this work with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace?

Yes. Our email security layers on top of Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, adding filtering, anti-spoofing, and attachment protection beyond the built-in settings, with no change to how your team sends and receives mail.

Email Security

bdManagedIT delivers enterprise-grade email security to North Georgia businesses through Managed Email Security, blocking phishing, spam, malware, and business email compromise before they reach your inbox.

Book your first appointment Take the security assessment

Email is the number one entry point for cyberattacks, and most breaches start with a single malicious message. Managed Email Security wraps every inbox in your organization with multi-layer filtering, impersonation detection, and real-time threat intelligence. We handle configuration, monitoring, and response so your team can use email with confidence and your sensitive data stays protected.

What's included

Phishing and impersonation detection

Managed Email Security scans every inbound message for spoofed sender addresses, lookalike domains, and social engineering patterns. Attacks that mimic your bank, your vendors, or your own leadership are flagged and quarantined before anyone clicks.

Advanced spam and malware filtering

Multi-layer content analysis strips malicious attachments, weaponized links, and junk mail from the mail stream. Filtering rules update in real time against live threat feeds, so new attack variants are caught on day one.

Business email compromise protection

BEC attacks cost businesses billions annually and rarely carry a virus signature. Managed Email Security uses behavioral analysis to detect wire-transfer requests, payroll redirect attempts, and vendor fraud schemes that slip past traditional filters.

Email continuity and archiving

If your mail server goes down, Managed Email Security keeps your team sending and receiving through a redundant continuity portal. Tamper-proof archiving stores a searchable copy of every message to satisfy compliance requirements and legal holds.

What you get

Stop the number one attack vector

Over 90 percent of cyberattacks begin in the inbox. Managed Email Security closes that door before threats reach your staff, reducing incident risk without adding friction to daily communication.

Protect revenue and client trust

A single successful wire-fraud email can cost tens of thousands of dollars. Stopping business email compromise before it lands protects your cash flow and the relationships that took years to build.

Meet compliance requirements

HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and FTC Safeguards all require controls around electronic communications. Managed Email Security delivers the filtering, encryption support, and audit-ready archiving that auditors and regulators look for.

Flat-fee, fully managed

No per-incident billing. No tuning your own policies. We configure, monitor, and maintain Managed Email Security as part of your flat-fee managed IT plan so the cost and the workload stay predictable.
