Modern Email Security Using Microsoft Defender for Office 365

Microsoft 365 offers powerful tools for protecting your organization’s email, but many of them are underutilized or misconfigured. Nathan Taylor (SVP, Global Microsoft Practice Leader) explores how Microsoft Defender for Office 365 enhances email security through features like safe links, attachment sandboxing, and AI-driven threat detection. Common missteps in email filtering include reliance on outdated MX-based filtering methods, which can interfere with message integrity and authentication. Native mail flow through Microsoft 365 is recommended to preserve message metadata and improve detection accuracy. Proper configuration of Microsoft Defender for Office 365 is essential to align with modern security requirements, enabling features such as safe links, attachment sandboxing, and AI-driven threat analysis.
