Ransomware protection

Ransomware is a huge threat to your organization. In fact, 94% of ransomware infections and over 90% of targeted attacks start with an email.¹ Our solution:

Detects ransomware and other malware hidden in common Office or PDF documents
Prevents phishing attacks and spam with multiple protection techniques – sender reputation, content and image analysis, machine learning, and more
Detects zero-day malware by using pre-execution machine learning on files, and dynamic analysis with sandboxing

Business Email Compromise (BEC) protection

BEC, including CEO fraud, is a fast growing threat to your organization. Dubbed “the 12 billion dollar scam” by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), BEC is hard to detect because usually no attachments or URLs are being used. Smart Protection for Office 365 looks at who, what, where, when and why of an email, and:

Catches BEC attacks by using artificial intelligence, including expert system and machine learning, to examine email header, content, and authorship.
Applies more stringent protection for high-profile users.
Uses unique Writing Style DNA technology to authenticate incoming English email from an executive against a trained machine learning model of that executive’s writing.
