Expel expands MDR platform to boost email threat detection
Expel has announced the expansion of its managed detection and response (MDR) service to cover email-based threats with new integrations. The company is integrating its MDR platform with Proofpoint, Abnormal Security, and Sublime Security to strengthen protection against phishing, business email compromise (BEC), and other inbox-based attacks. With email remaining a frequent entry point for credential theft, malware installation, and unauthorised access, Expel's enhanced solution aims to identify potential threats earlier in the attack lifecycle. This is intended to help customers reduce risk and improve their security posture with more effective detection and response capabilities. "Identity-based incidents, largely originating from emails, made up 68% of all incidents among Expel customers last year," said Yonni Shelmerdine, Chief Product Officer, Expel. "Incorporating email threat data enables us to identify and block attacks as soon as they hit the inbox, and gives customers insight into the threat actors working to gain access to their organisation. We're delivering the most comprehensive MDR solution in the market, and these capabilities further solidify that commitment while providing our customers with unparalleled visibility and protection across critical attack vectors." The expansion comes at a time when security teams are being challenged by a surge in sophisticated email threats, partly driven by the growth of generative artificial intelligence. This increase has resulted in higher volumes of security alerts, putting additional strain on security resources. Expel has developed its own detections specifically tailored for email security tools and platforms. These proprietary detections are designed to minimise irrelevant alerts and reduce the number of email-based threats that reach end users' inboxes. The company's approach seeks to strengthen early detection and response capability, which is considered a critical factor for organisations aiming to reduce the likelihood and impact of cyber threats. Expel's platform integrates data from various email security providers and combines it with contextual information from endpoints, users, and network activity. This enables the system to uncover the full sequence of email-based attack campaigns and take targeted actions to limit potential damage. Expel continues to build its MDR coverage with what it describes as a technology-agnostic approach, aiming to help customers get more value from existing security investments. The company now offers integrations for over 130 different technology categories, spanning endpoint, cloud, Kubernetes, software-as-a-service, network, SIEM, email, identity, and others. The expanded MDR service is part of Expel's ongoing efforts to address the security risks associated with the most commonly exploited attack vectors in enterprise environments.
