Email & Endpoint Protection
Two layers between an attacker and your data: email protection that catches what Microsoft's defaults miss, and Bitdefender or SentinelOne on every device watching what actually runs.
Email is still the most reliable attack path. Not because defences are weak — because people are busy and a convincing message only needs one click. Layered email protection filters the obvious junk, catches the sophisticated phishing that gets past Microsoft's defaults and flags the suspicious before it reaches an inbox.
Every device we manage runs Bitdefender or SentinelOne for endpoint detection and response — not just a signature scanner, but a behavioural engine that watches what's running and kills it if something looks wrong. The two layers together mean the threat has to get through both the email filter and the endpoint before it causes damage. Neither alone is enough.
- Email filtering that goes beyond Microsoft Defender defaults — phishing, spoofing and malicious attachments caught at the perimeter
- Anti-spoofing controls: DKIM, SPF and DMARC configured so your domain isn't impersonated
- Bitdefender or SentinelOne EDR on every managed device — behavioural detection, not just signatures
- Automatic threat containment on endpoints: suspicious processes killed before they can spread
- Quarantine management and release workflow, so legitimate mail isn't just blocked without review
- Phishing simulation via RiskSense, so your team is tested against real-looking lures rather than spotting generic templates
Quick questions
Microsoft 365 already has built-in spam filtering. Why add another layer?
Microsoft's filtering is baseline protection. The sophisticated phishing — business email compromise, vendor impersonation, invoice fraud — often gets through it. A dedicated email security layer is tuned specifically for those threats, and catches what the defaults miss.
What's the difference between Bitdefender and SentinelOne?
Both are enterprise-grade EDR platforms and both are significantly stronger than traditional antivirus. We recommend based on your environment and what's already running. For most clients we have a preference based on fit, but we'll be straight with you about the reasons rather than defaulting to one by habit.
Our staff use personal devices for work email. Does endpoint protection cover those?
Only if the device is enrolled in management. Personal devices not under management are a gap — we'd flag that and discuss options. Mobile device management for BYO devices is a separate conversation, but it's not one we'd leave unaddressed.
Security, identity, backup — with RiskSense keeping score.
Cyber threats don't announce themselves. We cover identity, email, endpoints and data — all of it together, not bolted on one piece at a time — with RiskSense, our own platform, watching for the gaps before they become incidents. All of Protect →
