Elevate defense against modern email threats
- Stop advanced and AI-generated threats before they reach the inbox with multi-layered AI defenses and threat intelligence that blocks malicious emails pre-delivery.
- Reduce your window of exposure with automated post-delivery clawback directly in Microsoft 365 to remove emails identified as malicious as soon as threat intelligence is updated.
- Enhance and extend foundational Exchange Online spam and malware protection with advanced email filtering, AI analysis, impersonation protection, DLP, and content control.
- Protect users from weaponized links with time-of-click URL scanning that checks links upon click — including malicious URLs hidden in QR codes and images that bypass traditional defenses.
Fast and Easy Deployment
Get up and running in minutes with flexible deployment options and intuitive management that make enterprise-grade email protection simple to operationalize.
- Fast deployment with simple configuration, whether operating as a traditional mail gateway, or in an integrated Mailflow mode with Microsoft 365.
