Fully integrated with Microsoft 365 and other leading email platforms, Sophos Email Security helps organizations reduce risk, improve compliance, and maintain business continuity.

Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) for email security

Email ITDR focuses on detecting account takeovers, business email compromise (BEC), password spraying attacks, impossible travel logins, multi-factor authentication (MFA) abuse, malicious mailbox forwarding rules, unauthorized OAuth application access, and other indicators that an email identity has been compromised. By analyzing user behavior and authentication activity, ITDR can identify abnormal actions that would otherwise appear legitimate because the attacker is using valid credentials.
