Recently, we have been hearing from our customers and partners of a concerning increase in the number of sophisticated malware attacks which are striking organizations. These are not simple attacks, but involve compromising reputable web servers in order to deliver malware infected content. The good news is that there is a solution to this – but why are traditional methods simply not working?

Clearswift has recently been approached by a number of top cybersecurity teams and organizations to help them address an increasing threat of ongoing attempts to deliver embedded malware hidden in email attachments that is automatically activated by malicious scripting code. The sophistication and continuous morphing of delivery methods have made it so these new malware variants go undetected and pass right by major AV scanning solutions.
