Protecting your business from modern email threats before they reach your users.
Email remains the number one way cyber criminals target businesses. Phishing attacks, malicious attachments, fraudulent links, account compromise, and ransomware continue to be responsible for the majority of successful cyber incidents. These attacks have become increasingly sophisticated, often impersonating trusted organisations, suppliers, colleagues, and even Microsoft services in an attempt to deceive users.
While Microsoft 365 includes built-in email protection, modern cyber threats are constantly evolving. Businesses increasingly require additional layers of security to defend against advanced phishing attacks, malware, business email compromise (BEC), and zero-day threats that traditional filtering may not detect.
At Engage IT Services, we help organisations enhance their Microsoft 365 security using INKY, an advanced email security platform that works alongside Microsoft’s native protection to identify and neutralise sophisticated threats before they reach your users.
Why Advanced Threat Protection Matters
Cyber criminals rarely attack computers directly. Instead, they target the people using them.
A single convincing phishing email can result in:
- Stolen Microsoft 365 credentials
- Financial fraud and invoice scams
- Business Email Compromise (BEC)
- Malware and ransomware infections
- Data breaches and regulatory issues
- Significant business disruption
The reality is that even well-trained users can be caught out by a professional phishing attack. That’s why a layered approach to cyber security is essential.
Protecting Users Before They Click
The most effective security solutions stop threats before users have an opportunity to interact with them.
INKY analyses incoming emails using advanced AI and computer vision technology, identifying suspicious messages, impersonation attempts, malicious links, and social engineering tactics that can bypass traditional filtering systems.
This enables businesses to reduce risk while still allowing legitimate email communication to flow normally.
Advanced Protection Against Modern Threats
Phishing & Brand Impersonation Detection
Cyber criminals frequently disguise emails to appear as trusted companies, suppliers, customers, or Microsoft services.
INKY can identify visual and behavioural indicators associated with these attacks and clearly warn users when a message appears suspicious.
Malware & Malicious Attachments
Email remains one of the most common delivery methods for malware and ransomware.
Advanced threat protection helps prevent malicious files and suspicious content from reaching users, reducing the risk of infections spreading throughout the organisation.
Safe Link Protection
Many attacks use fraudulent websites designed to steal usernames, passwords, and other sensitive information.
Advanced threat protection technologies help identify unsafe links before they can be used to compromise user accounts.
Business Email Compromise (BEC)
Some of the most damaging cyber incidents involve attackers impersonating executives, suppliers, or colleagues to trick employees into transferring money or sensitive information.
These highly targeted attacks often bypass traditional spam filters, making advanced detection capabilities increasingly important.
A Layered Security Approach
Technology alone is not enough to prevent every attack.
The strongest defence combines:
- Advanced email protection
- Microsoft Defender security features
- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
- Security awareness training
- Endpoint protection
- Secure backups and recovery
- Regular cyber security reviews
When these layers work together, businesses are significantly better protected against both opportunistic and targeted attacks.

Cyber threats continue to evolve, but with the right combination of technology, processes, and user awareness, the risks can be dramatically reduced.
