Abstract

Email filtering is one of the critical gateways to protecting an organisation from cyber-attacks. With 91% of cyberattacks originating from external emails, email filtering toolkits are crucial to protecting an organisation from cyber-attacks. After completing the post graduate diploma in Cyber Security and working within a cyber-based role, I elected to complete a project-based industry placement. The main brief of the project is to migrate the mail filtering toolset from on-premise to cloud. The current on-premise application can block anywhere from 70% -90% of inbound emails due to their content, with Cloud also expected to stop the same and more. The paper provides an insight into the overall project from fruition to deployment. It gives the rationale for decisions made alongside areas for future improvement and lessons learnt.
