## [The Myth of “Staying One Step Ahead of the Hackers”](https://www.cloudmask.com/blog/the-myth-of-staying-one-step-ahead-of-the-hackers)

 The assumption that software security can stay ahead of the hackers is not true because the software security industry is always reacting to threats that hackers expose.

 Email is one of the most critical business tools and a major component of the lives of many people. At the same time, it seems to lack adequate security as the Clinton campaign email leaks and the publication of France’s Macron emails have shown. Email is at the same time insecure but used to share important and often sensitive information. While companies encrypt...
