What you are actually buying

You are not just buying another spam filter.

Avanan adds a stronger layer of protection around email, helping detect and block phishing, malicious links, malware, suspicious behaviour and risky applications.

  • Anti-phishing protection for incoming and internal emails
  • Known malware prevention with anti-virus scanning
  • Malicious URL prevention and URL click-time protection
  • Account takeover prevention using anomaly detection
  • Unauthorised application detection for Shadow IT risks
  • Zero-day malware prevention with sandboxing
  • Attachment sanitisation using CDR and Threat Extraction

This is the difference between “we have email” and “our inboxes are actively protected.”

What Avanan helps protect against

  • Phishing emails that look convincing
  • Malicious links and fake login pages
  • Known malware and zero-day malware attachments
  • Business email compromise attempts
  • Account takeover behaviour and anomalies
  • Unsafe internal emails sent from compromised accounts
  • Unauthorised apps and Shadow IT activity

Who this is for

If your organisation relies on email, this is one of the most practical places to reduce risk.

Good fit if:

  • You use Microsoft 365 or cloud email every day
  • You are worried about phishing, malicious links or fake login pages
  • You want stronger protection than built-in email filtering alone
  • You need better evidence for cyber insurance, Cyber Essentials or client security reviews

Probably not the right fit if:

  • You do not use Microsoft 365 or supported cloud email
  • You already have advanced email security fully managed elsewhere
  • You only want a basic spam filter
  • You are looking for short-term or monthly-only protection

How this fits into your Microsoft 365 security setup

Email security is one part of protecting Microsoft 365. It works best alongside identity protection and backup.

  • Avanan helps stop phishing, malware and malicious links before they cause harm
  • Huntress ITDR helps detect compromised Microsoft 365 accounts and suspicious identity activity
  • ConnectWise Cloud Backup for Microsoft 365 helps recover emails, files and sites if data is deleted, changed or lost

Simple way to think about it: email security helps stop the attack, ITDR helps detect account compromise, and cloud backup helps you recover if something still goes wrong.

Why email security matters

People are busy. Emails arrive quickly. Attackers know this.

Avanan helps reduce the chance that one convincing message, unsafe link or malicious attachment becomes a wider problem for your organisation.

This is not about blaming staff. It is about giving them safer inboxes and better protection around the tools they already use.

Common questions

Is Avanan just a spam filter?
No. Avanan is advanced email security. It protects against phishing, malware, malicious links, account takeover behaviour, unsafe attachments and more.

Does this work with Microsoft 365?
Yes. Avanan is designed to protect cloud email environments including Microsoft 365.

Does this stop phishing?
It helps detect and block phishing emails, malicious links, fake login pages and suspicious messages before they reach users.

What is URL click-time protection?
It checks links when they are clicked, helping protect against links that become malicious after the email has already been delivered.

What is attachment sanitisation?
Attachment sanitisation, also known as CDR or Threat Extraction, removes potentially risky active content from attachments before users open them.
