Mail Protection
A security layer that analyzes URLs and links within email messages to detect phishing before the recipient clicks.
Overview
Mail protection extends phishing defense directly into the email workflow. Instead of relying solely on email gateways that inspect messages at the perimeter, mail protection analyzes links within the inbox itself - checking URLs embedded in email bodies, evaluating sender reputation, and flagging suspicious messages with visible indicators. This is particularly valuable for phishing emails that bypass gateway filters and reach the inbox. When integrated with a browser extension, mail protection provides a seamless experience: links are analyzed both in the email client and at the moment of click, creating overlapping layers of defense that leave no gap for attackers to exploit.
