dataglobal Group and SoSafe join forces against social engineering

Heilbronn/Berlin, June 20, 2024 – The dataglobal Group, with its subsidiary eleven cyber security GmbH and the product eXpurgate a leading provider of mail security, is now working intensively with SoSafe, the largest provider of security awareness and human risk management in Europe, and has concluded a corresponding partner agreement. Together, the two companies are committed to improving security in e-mail communication – especially protection against the rapidly increasing and ever more sophisticated social engineering attacks.

Attackers use social engineering to use publicly available background information to entice employees to disclose access data (phishing) or to carry out certain activities (e.g. financial transactions, CEO fraud) with highly individualized attacks. The dataglobal Group’s mail security solution eXpurgate, which protects around one billion emails a day and thus more than half of the private email volume in Germany, already offers very good technical protection against spam and phishing. In combination with SoSafe’s security awareness training, this protection is extended to the human factor in order to sensitize employees to social engineering attacks in particular.

“SoSafe is an excellent partner for us. SoSafe’s security awareness training aims to sensitize people to digital threats and teach them safe behavior – a perfect complement to our technological approach. Together, eXpurgate and SoSafe form an insurmountable obstacle to email-based attacks by cyber criminals,” says Hilmar Hänel, Partner Manager in the dataglobal Group. “For us, email security is an elementary component of the digital workplace, without which trusting and efficient collaboration is not possible. Digital transformation requires secure digital communication.”

dataglobal and SoSafe will present their joint approach in a free webinar entitled “Together against social engineering: The experts from eXpurgate and SoSafe in conversation” on Thursday, June 27, 2024, at 2:30 p.m. In it, they explain the threats posed by social engineering using real examples and how companies and other organizations can protect themselves against them. The mail security specialists will explain how eXpurgate protects against spam and phishing and how SoSafe’s security awareness training ensures that no one falls for the tricks of cyber criminals. In a concluding Q&A session, participants will have direct access to the experts’ extensive practical knowledge.

Interested parties can register here free of charge for the joint webinar by SoSafe and the dataglobal Group on protection options against social engineering.
