A Critical Anomaly indicating a compromised account is now generated when protected users send internal or outgoing phishing/spam emails.
Detecting compromised accounts is key to prevent extensive damage to organizations.
A strong indicator for a compromised account are phishing/spam emails sent from this account to other internal users or external parties.
When Harmony Email & Collaboration detects such emails, it now does not only quarantine them, but also generates a compromised account (Critical Anomaly) event.
Administrators are then alerted and can act fast to prevent any damage from this user.
