Securing Exchange Online (email)

Email is the most common way attacks reach an organisation. Exchange Online settings for authentication, filtering and encryption cut off the easy routes.

Why it matters

Phishing and business email compromise target Australian organisations constantly, often impersonating suppliers to redirect payments. Hardening email is one of the highest-value things you can do.
