Email Security Services That Protect Your Business
Business email compromise sneaks in as a convincing CEO email tricking finance into making payments; no dramatic hack required, yet it succeeds too often. BEMO delivers advanced email security services built on Microsoft Defender for Office 365, configuring threat protection, encryption, and authentication to stop these attacks cold.
Threat Protection
✓ Microsoft Defender for Office 365 blocks phishing links, detonates suspicious attachments, and enforces anti-phishing policies
✓ Exchange Online Protection filters spam and malware before messages reach your inbox
Authentication & Encryption
✓ DKIM, DMARC, and SPF prevent attackers from spoofing your domain
✓ Office Message Encryption lets you send encrypted emails inside and outside your organization
Monitoring and policy Enforcement
✓ Outbound spam notifications flag compromised accounts
✓ Mailbox auditing logs all access and actions
✓ Auto-forwarding to external domains is blocked
✓ Anonymous calendar sharing is disabled
Office Message Encryption (OME)Most people assume their emails are already encrypted. They're not. Without OME configured, sensitive content travels in clear text, readable by anyone who intercepts it. BEMO sets up and manages Office Message Encryption so your team doesn't have to think about it.
If you're in healthcare, finance, or government contracting, OME alone can eliminate standalone encryption costs you may already be paying for. |
Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection (ATP)
Phishing links, malicious attachments, and spoofed senders are how most email breaches start. Microsoft Defender for Office 365 uses machine learning to analyze sender behavior, flag suspicious content, and block threats before they reach your team's inbox.
BEMO configures and maintains Defender for Office 365 across your email, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams.
- Scan and block malicious URLs in real time with Safe Links
- Detonate suspicious attachments in a sandbox before delivery with Safe Attachments
- Detect impersonation and domain spoofing with anti-phishing policies
- Filter spam and malware so your inbox only shows emails that belong there
Defender learns from billions of signals processed through Microsoft Exchange daily, which means your protection improves over time without any manual effort from your team.
Who Would Want to Read My Emails Anyway?
This is a common objection we get from people. "Who cares if hackers read my emails, there's nothing interesting in there anyway."
If you don't handle sensitive information like financials, patients' health records, share passwords and credit card info over email, and you're just asking Jim where he wants to go to lunch, then maybe.
Think again. Most of the time, hackers aren't trying to read your emails, they want your credentials.
They are going to send you a phishing link or malicious file that gives them access to your email, a specific account, or your computer.
Ultimately, they want money from you. Once they're in your system, they SPAM people using YOUR email address or will find creative ways to impersonate your CEO asking your CFO to make an urgent wire transfer to close a deal.
And when they do that using your company's email, then two things happen. First, if you're the IT guy, then everyone's wondering why you weren't able to prevent this, making you feel embarrassed and your skills inadequate. If you're the CEO, then a handful of customers leave and the rest of them have less confidence in you, making you angry, because you already had tons of other work to deal with, and now a storm hit the fan.
BEMO's Email Security FAQs
-
Why do businesses need more than basic spam filtering?
Spam filters catch obvious junk but miss real threats like targeted phishing, spoofed domains, and malicious attachments. Email security services for businesses should include advanced threat protection, authentication (DKIM, DMARC, SPF), and encryption. BEMO configures these through Microsoft Defender to protect your environment at every layer, not just the surface. -
What does BEMO's email security cover?
BEMO's managed email security services include Microsoft Defender for Office 365 (Safe Links, Safe Attachments, anti-phishing policies), Exchange Online Protection for spam and malware filtering, DKIM, DMARC, and SPF configuration, Office Message Encryption, mailbox auditing, and restrictions on mail forwarding and calendar sharing. We handle the full implementation and continue managing these tools and policies on an ongoing basis.
-
Do I need to buy additional tools, or does this work with my existing Microsoft 365 license?
Most of what BEMO configures is already included in your Microsoft 365 license. Tools like Exchange Online Protection, DKIM, DMARC, SPF, and mailbox auditing are available out of the box but rarely configured properly. Microsoft Defender for Office 365 may require a plan upgrade depending on your current license tier. BEMO reviews your setup and advises on exactly what's needed before any changes are made. -
Does BEMO manage email security on an ongoing basis, or is it a one-time setup?
BEMO implements your full email security configuration and then continues to manage it. Threats change, Microsoft releases updates, and policies need adjusting over time. Our security services for email include ongoing monitoring, policy maintenance, and adjustments as your business grows or new risks emerge. You're not left to figure out what changed after the initial setup. -
How does email security fit into a broader compliance program?
If you're working toward SOC 2, CMMC, or ISO 27001, email security is one of the controls auditors will ask about. DKIM, DMARC, encryption, and anti-phishing policies are all part of the evidence you'll need during an assessment. BEMO's email security services are built to align with these frameworks, so the work we do on your email environment directly supports your compliance goals.
