ESET, a global leader in the cybersecurity market, has made available ESET Cloud Office Security, new software, delivered as-a-service, that provides advanced preventative protection for users of Microsoft 365 applications.
The software is designed with the new role of emails and collaboration tools increasingly used within companies in mind. Microsoft 365 is used around the world, and the cloud has become an integral part of data storage and business systems, regardless of their size. With beyond 84% of companies (according to the survey published by Gartner on 3 September 2019 – Implementing Microsoft Office 365) who use or intend to use Microsoft 365, it is essential that companies and their cloud tools are adequately protected. Companies using ESET Cloud Office Security are protected from incidents caused by email or malware attacks and can help their employees stay focused on work tasks.
Email is the foundation of modern business communication, but it remains one of the most effective channels for distributing malware, the consequences of which can be disastrous, especially as collaboration tools spread. ESET Cloud Office Security provides an additional layer of protection for email and Microsoft 365 cloud storage, giving all team members peace of mind with automatic protection of new user mailboxes. The solution enables total control and visibility into threats, with immediate notification when malware is detected and an easy-to-use web console that allows IT administrators to take immediate action.
The combination of anti-spam filtering, anti-malware scanning and anti-phishing protects companies' Exchange Online services, which in turn protects communications from malware, minimizes the negative effects of unsolicited emails on daily productivity, and helps prevent incoming external emails from being used as a means of spreading targeted attacks. ESET Cloud Office Security's anti-malware protection also reacts to any changes to files in OneDrive, helping safeguard your company's data and mitigating the risk of malware spreading to other devices. Accessible from anywhere, the easy-to-use cloud console also offers an overview of quarantined files and immediately provides notifications when detections occur.
Ján Brunovský, Product Manager at ESET, commented: Nearly every business in the world relies on email for communications, yet it is one of the primary attack vectors exploited by cybercriminals. We are excited to bring ESET Cloud Office Security to market and provide a solution that will protect countless businesses, their interactions and their most valuable data. Protecting email and cloud storage is the cornerstone of cybersecurity for businesses that, without a solid foundation of anti-malware protection, are vulnerable to attacks. We are proud to provide a new, cutting-edge and easy-to-use solution for the broad spectrum of businesses that need to protect their cloud tools."
