Architecture

Mail filtering path

Filtering sits in front of the tenant so malicious mail is stopped before it reaches a mailbox, with a release workflow users can actually use.

    Authentication results feed the filtering decision rather than being logged and ignored.

    A compromised mailbox is contained instead of becoming a spam source that damages the domain.

FAQ

Email Security Gateway questions we are asked

Do we need a gateway if we already have Microsoft 365?
Not always. Defender for Office 365 covers many organisations well; a gateway is added where impersonation risk is high, where multiple mail platforms exist, or where independent quarantine control is required.
What happens to mail if the gateway is unavailable?
Reputable gateways spool mail during an outage and deliver it once service resumes. That behaviour is verified before MX records are moved.
Can users release their own quarantined mail?
Yes, through a digest and self-service portal, with policy deciding which categories may be released without an administrator.
