When it comes to email and collaboration services, businesses have more choices beyond Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft 365. While these options may be popular choices, they may not be the best fit for your business. Consider MDaemon Email Server, a powerful Microsoft Exchange alternative that includes all of the email and collaboration features businesses need, without the added costs and headaches of a more complex email solution.

How can Businesses Improve Email Security with Strong Passwords?
By Brad Wyro posted in Email Security, Passwords
Did you know that over 80 percent of company data breaches are caused by poor passwords?
According to a recent study:
- Over 555 million passwords have been stolen by hackers in the last 5 years
- 44% of users reuse their passwords across personal and business-related accounts
- 31% of users have used their child’s name or birthday for their passwords
One of the biggest challenges for businesses is getting their users to use strong, unique passwords that are hard to guess, and this is made worse by the fact that users tend to reuse passwords across multiple accounts, making them an easier target for cybercriminals.

Email is still the number one way attackers get into an organization. In 2025, the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) logged more than $20.8 billion in reported losses, a 26% jump over the prior year, and business email compromise (BEC) alone accounted for roughly $3 billion of that total. For managed service providers (MSPs), those figures are more than an industry headline. When a client gets hit, the MSP is the one who has to explain what happened, clean up the damage, and answer the hard question of why the defenses did not hold.

These days, hackers are gaining access to increasingly sophisticated tools to steal your usernames and passwords, and they know that people continue to use weak passwords for banking, utilities, and much more.

Why You Can't Rely on Users to Keep Email Secure (2026 Update)

For hackers, it's a numbers game. An estimated 3.4 billion phishing emails are sent every day, but all they need is for one of them to find a willing victim and do damage to your network.
And in 2026, the odds have shifted further in the attacker's favor. Generative AI now writes the majority of phishing emails, producing fluent, personalized, typo-free messages that are far harder to spot than the clumsy scams of a few years ago. Research shows AI-crafted phishing lures achieve dramatically higher click rates than traditional ones, while costing attackers almost nothing to produce at scale.
Needless to say, leaving email security up to end users is probably not a good idea.
