From Detection to Action: How Email Security Dashboards Strengthen Incident Response

Phishing, business email compromise (BEC), and malware threats are evolving faster than legacy email security tools can keep up. If your organization still relies on perimeter-based filtering or legacy email gateways (LEGs), you may be missing critical threats and the visibility to respond effectively.

That’s why Louisville Geek offers a 14-day Email Security Checkup powered by Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration (HEC)—a cloud-native, API-based email security solution that delivers real-time threat visibility, actionable insights, and a direct path to incident response.

What Is Harmony Email & Collaboration (HEC)?

Harmony Email & Collaboration (HEC) is Check Point’s advanced email security platform built for cloud environments like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and collaboration tools such as Teams and Slack. Unlike legacy gateways, HEC integrates via secure APIs—no MX record changes required—and scans email traffic inline to detect and block threats before they reach users.

Key features include:

• AI-powered phishing and malware detection
• Real-time scanning of inbound, outbound, and internal emails
• Threat intelligence from Check Point’s ThreatCloud
• Automated remediation and detailed reporting

What Your Email Security Dashboard Reveals

Once HEC is deployed, your dashboard becomes a powerful tool for understanding and responding to email-borne threats. Here’s what you’ll see:

1. Blocked Threats

A detailed log of phishing, malware, and impersonation attempts stopped before delivery.

2. Attack Origins

Insights into where threats originated—spoofed domains, compromised accounts, or malicious URLs.

3. User Targeting Patterns

Identification of high-risk users based on frequency and type of attacks.

4. Threat Severity Ratings

Categorization of threats by risk level, enabling faster triage and response.

5. Detection Methods

Transparency into how threats were flagged—via AI models, behavioral analysis, or threat intelligence feeds.

What Businesses Learn During the Email Security Checkup

Organizations often uncover:

• Credential phishing attempts disguised as Microsoft or Google login pages
• Spoofed internal emails exploiting trust relationships
• False negatives missed by legacy systems
• High-volume targeting of specific departments, such as finance or HR
• Previously undetected malware attachments that bypassed perimeter filters

From Visibility to Action: Incident Response with Check Point

Real-time visibility is only the first step. Once threats are detected, organizations need a clear path to contain, investigate, and remediate. That’s where Check Point’s Incident Response (IR) services come in.

If your Email Security Checkup reveals signs of compromise—such as credential theft, lateral movement, or targeted phishing—Louisville Geek can escalate to Check Point’s IR team for:

• 24/7 emergency response from certified cybersecurity experts
• Digital forensics and root cause analysis
• Containment and eradication of active threats
• Recommendations for hardening your environment
• Post-incident reporting for compliance and insurance

By combining Harmony Email & Collaboration with Check Point’s IR services, you get a full-spectrum solution—from detection to resolution.

Why Real-Time Threat Visibility Matters

Real-time visibility into email threats enables your IT and security teams to:

• Accelerate incident response with detailed forensic data
• Reduce dwell time and prevent lateral movement
• Improve SOC efficiency through automated threat classification
• Enhance compliance reporting with exportable dashboards
• Strengthen your cybersecurity posture with actionable insights
