Why switching from Email Security.cloud, formerly MessageLabs, makes good business sense
Since the announcement of the pending sale of Symantec Enterprise assets to Broadcom, Symantec customers may be considering switching from Email Security.cloud, formerly known as MessageLabs, to another email security provider. Here are some of the headlines following the acquisition news:
- Marketwatch: Symantec is another “decaying software asset” for Broadcom to add
- SearchSecurity: Broadcom-Symantec deal troubles cybersecurity experts
- SDxCentral: Broadcom Pay $10.7B, Puts Symantec Out of its Misery
Email-borne threats like phishing and ransomware continue to impact organizations large and small, and some market observers have speculated that Symantec customers are becoming nervous that Email Security.cloud will no longer benefit from the research, development and innovation required to stay steps ahead of cybersecurity threats.
