&lt;p&gt;For years, security teams have poured resources into locking down the inbox, and for good reason. Email has always been the front door for phishing and social engineering. Unfortunately, another door has been left wide open: Microsoft Teams.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>An Overview of Email Compliance Regulations and Reporting</title>

&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Email is one of the primary ways people share information, connect with customers and get work done. It is also one of the easiest channels for risk to slip in. A mistyped address, an exposed attachment, a missed opt-out, or a rushed response to a phishing message can all lead to serious problems.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Why Your Email Security Needs a Global Human Network to Close the Detection Gap</title>
      <link>https://blog.knowbe4.com/global-human-network-closes-email-detection-gap</link>

&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The biggest challenge in email security today isn’t just detecting a threat; it’s the speed of response across a global landscape. As we head into the second half of 2026, the stakes with speed have gotten higher. According to SQ Magazine, AI-generated phishing attempts are 68% harder to detect than they were just a year ago, and the average cost of an AI-powered breach has climbed to $5.72 million.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
