Mimecast, an advanced email and collaboration security company, today announced the publication of its annual “The State of Email Security 2023” (SOES) report. The global survey is based on responses from 1,700 IT and security decision-makers, providing readers with key takeaways on the current threat landscape and offering recommendations to help organizations improve their cybersecurity posture.

The global report sheds light on the threats affecting companies across the globe, including the United Arab Emiratesand Saudi Arabia. Ninety four of respondents from the UAE and 100% from Saudi Arabia reported to have been targeted by emailed-based phishing attacks in the last year, but they all said that they either have a system to monitor and protect against email-borne threats or are actively planning to roll one out.
