Security—Cloud And Application Security

Cavelo CIS Benchmark Misconfiguration Capabilities For Microsoft Office 365

The Cavelo CIS Benchmark Misconfiguration feature for Microsoft Office 365 empowers managed service providers with Office 365 misconfiguration detection and CIS benchmark implementation capabilities. The CIS benchmarks, developed by global cybersecurity experts, provide unbiased, consensus-based best practices for securing commonly used systems and applications. Covering over 100 benchmarks across 25 product families, including cloud services, CIS guidelines prioritize critical areas like network security, data protection and access management. Cloud services introduce unique challenges for vulnerability management.

Unlike traditional infrastructure, where vulnerabilities stem primarily from software flaws, risk in the cloud is largely tied to misconfigurations. Common misconfiguration types, such as default settings, insecure permissions and outdated software, can expose sensitive data, including personally identifiable information (PII). This new feature helps managed service providers identify and apply CIS benchmarks to Office 356, ensuring cloud services uphold the same best practices that they maintain across their on-premises infrastructure.

Halcyon Data Exfiltration Protection

The Halcyon Data Exfiltration Protection (DXP) module significantly expands the Halcyon Platform’s anti-ransomware capabilities. About 80 percent of ransomware attacks involve double extortion, in which sensitive data is exfiltrated before delivery of the ransomware payload, and is then used as added leverage to compel payment of a ransom demand. In fact, suspicious data movement is often the first indicator that a ransomware attack is in progress and a payload may be about to detonate.

Halcyon DXP allows organizations to proactively identify suspicious data movement, insulating them from the threat of ransomware and reducing potential legal and regulatory liability from data loss associated with ransomware attacks. With DXP integrated into the Halcyon anti-ransomware platform, organizations can rely on Halcyon to detect data exfiltration attempts, defend against data extortion attacks, and receive early detection of any threat actor activity across their networks, yielding true cyber resilience.

Its unified approach integrates Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), Data Access Governance (DAG), and Data Detection and Response (DDR) to discover exposures, improve data security posture, control access permissions, and detect threats in real-time. This enables businesses to scale efficiently while ensuring stronger data management and security.

Security—Email And Web Security

Abnormal AI Security Mailbox

AI Security Mailbox provides an AI coworker for email security operations, addressing two critical market needs. First, it automates the user-reported phishing emails workflow—a process that is highly manual and time-consuming for security teams that are often dealing with hundreds or even thousands of phishing reports every day. Second, it re-imagines security awareness through AI, engaging employees in immediate and personalized education around reported emails.

When an employee reports an attack, AI Security Mailbox automatically inspects and judges user-reported emails as malicious, spam, safe or a phishing simulation, automatically remediating messages deemed unsafe. It then automatically delivers a personalized response to the reporter explaining the outcome of their report and starting a two-way conversation enabled by generative AI. Employees can converse directly with the AI security analyst, with real-time feedback as it teaches them better security practices.

Barracuda Email Protection

Barracuda Email Protection helps organizations of all sizes and industries defeat increasingly sophisticated, frequent and targeted attacks, including phishing, ransomware, business email compromise (BEC) and more.

Generative AI is transforming software capabilities. It enables systems to understand language and engage intelligently with users. With INKY’s integration of generative AI, email security has entered a new era, offering extraordinary protection against today’s threats. With Generative AI, INKY can read and comprehend the text of each email. INKY’s deep understanding of language anticipates every way a request, threat, or scam could be worded. This capability ensures proactive, zero-day protection against phishing attacks.

The Dashboard provides admins with a whole new level of detail to understand and track threats. It tags the categories found in the email, provides a detailed explanation with mouse-over, and then highlights the language in the text of the email that it found suspicious. INKY is a modern email security platform purpose-built for MSPs. The addition of INKY Generative AI enables the company to provide partners with critical information security protection.

Mailprotector Shield

Designed specifically for MSPs and their clients, Shield eliminates the traditional trade-off between email security and usability. This enables service providers to deliver protection that clients appreciate, positioning MSPs as strategic advisers who solve problems rather than create friction. The result: happier clients, fewer support tickets and stronger security outcomes. Users regain control of their inbox and attention, seeing only messages that matter while Shield quietly handles the rest. Security decisions become more intuitive with clear visual cues that anyone can understand at a glance. Protection adapts to each user’s unique communication patterns, growing stronger and more personalized without requiring constant adjustments.

Shield transforms email security by replacing constant vigilance with genuine peace of mind for MSPs and their clients. Where traditional solutions force MSPs to manage complex configurations and field endless user questions, Shield’s zero trust approach questions everything automatically, dramatically reducing service desk overhead while strengthening protection.
