From Legacy to ICES: Separating Marketing Hype from Proven Email Defence

A CISO’s Guide to Evaluating Modern Email Security Architectures

The email threat landscape is evolving rapidly. Cybercriminals are increasingly using AI-powered techniques and sophisticated social engineering to bypass traditional email security defences.

Secure Email Gateways (SEGs) were designed for an earlier generation of threats focused on spam and malicious attachments. Today’s attacks—such as business email compromise (BEC), vendor email compromise (VEC) and account takeover—often leave little technical footprint and exploit human trust instead.

This whitepaper provides a strategic framework to help security leaders evaluate their current email security architecture and determine whether a transition to an integrated cloud email security model is the right move.
