Case Study: Lomma Municipality strengthens email security with WithSecure Elements Collaboration Protection

Lomma Municipality strengthens its defense against Zero Day-attacks and harmful content with WithSecure™ Elements Collaboration Protection

Lomma Municipality, a public sector organization in Sweden, faced significant cybersecurity challenges including heavy email traffic, sensitive personal data, and an increasing number of Zero Day attacks that bypassed their existing Microsoft 365 defenses. Following a damaging breach, they sought to strengthen their protection and turned to their long-time partner, WithSecure, to implement their cloud-based solution, Elements Collaboration Protection.

WithSecure's solution provided automated, multi-layer scanning of all emails and links, using sandboxing to detect and quarantine previously unseen threats like phishing, ransomware, and Zero Day attacks. The results were immediate, with the system identifying and neutralizing 51 malicious objects and 104 malicious web addresses from four million scanned emails in the first two months. This saved the municipality significant time and money by preventing incidents and ensuring no malicious content enters their system, providing complete peace of mind.
