The challenges Indian businesses face
Phishing at scale is already hitting Indian businesses: Phishing is no longer occasional. It is a constant, high-volume threat channel pressuring users, inboxes, and internal controls daily.
AI-generated phishing now looks like normal business email: Kaseya reported 83% of phishing emails now contain AI-generated content that is cleaner and better tailored to business context. Harvard Business Review found AI-crafted lures can achieve click rates similar to expert-written spear phishing.
Business email compromise is a direct financial risk: BEC is a payment fraud, impersonation, and trust problem. Hoxhunt reported it accounted for 73% of reported cyber incidents globally in 2024. CERT-In's June 2025 advisory on 16 billion exposed credentials gives attackers raw material for highly targeted campaigns against finance teams, leadership, and vendors.
Default settings leave too much risk in the inbox: Many organisations have the right Microsoft features in their licence but run them on weak defaults or audit-only settings. The gap is incomplete deployment, not product availability.
If your domain is not protected, anyone can pretend to be you: Without SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, attackers can spoof your domain, exposing you to impersonation, customer distrust, and fraudulent payment requests. Email authentication is a basic trust control for your brand and teams.
Poor quarantine controls put risk back in users' hands: Misconfigured quarantine policies cause blocked emails to disappear or trigger confusing notifications, leading users to release malicious emails back into the environment.
