Avanan overview

What is Avanan?

Avanan is a security solution for cloud-based email, messaging, and collaboration. Deploying in minutes, the multi-vendor security solution leverages the industry’s best technologies to protect organizations from advanced threats such as phishing, malware, data leakage, account takeover, and shadow IT. In just one click, users can secure enterprise SaaS applications such as Office 365, G Suite, Slack, and more against the latest threats.

Avanan's anti-phishing tools utilize advanced multilayer anti-phishing technology and an advanced machine learning algorithm that analyzes each aspect of an email, looking for over 300 indicators of phishing. The solution analyzes all historical emails to determine prior trust relations between the sender and receiver to identify user impersonation or fraudulent messages. Avanan also protects other cloud applications, such as OneDrive, Slack, and Dropbox, and provides real-time reports to help security administrators understand every part of a phishing attack.

Avanan also helps protect email and other applications from malware, ransomware, and viruses, scanning the entire cloud environment for malware including every message, file, and application. Avanan also works to identify and remediate compromised accounts with tools for account takeover protection using an event analysis algorithm to identify behavior that can be a sign of malicious behavior or might lead to an insecure configuration. Additional tools within Avanan include data leak prevention and regulatory compliance, shadow IT monitoring, and security incident event management.
