What is Avanan?
Avanan is a cloud email security platform that pioneered and patented a new approach to prevent sophisticated attacks. The platform uses APIs to block phishing, malware, and data leakage in the line of communications traffic. This means we catch threats missed by Microsoft while adding a transparent layer of security for the entire suite that also protects other collaboration tools like Slack.

Catches garbage that passes through other filters!
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Avanan from other similar products?
It's inline, behind Exchange Online ATP protection. It sees and monitors traffic inside my tenant. It picks up on and defends against many obfuscations that other filters don't see. My users just get significantly less spam and phishing assaults than they used to.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It's so effective.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The interface shown to users (for example, when a suspicious e-mail is quarantined) is a little rough. It could use another graphic design pass.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Try it inline, behind your existing protection, and see what it catches.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
