Close the Post-Delivery Gap

Gateway filtering alone isn’t enough. Protection must extend into the mailbox with post-delivery monitoring to maintain visibility across users and domains, detect threats that evade initial filters, and enable rapid investigation and containment to reduce dwell time and simplify response.

Unify Email Within the Security Platform

Consolidate email protection, endpoint defenses, compliance, and risk management to secure the entire attack lifecycle. Unified visibility and management reduce tool sprawl, improve operational efficiency, and lower total cost of ownership.

Simplified Management for MSPs and Businesses

Streamline email security with fast deployment and simplified policy management. Apply controls across users, domains, or tenants in minutes. Faster setup and reduced administrative effort help save time and simplify ongoing management.

Flexible Deployment Options

Built for modern environments, the security platform enables fast, flexible deployment and visibility across email systems. It features a dual-layered architecture offering API-based filtering and secure email gateway (SEG), or both, to support diverse environments and customer preferences.

Multi-layered Protection and Scanning

Business Email Compromise (BEC) and Impersonation Protection detect social engineering, phishing and impersonation attempts that bypass traditional spam filters. Multi-layered detection includes zero-day and advanced threat protection to stop known and unknown email-based threats.

Email Authentication

Built-in support for Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) protocols. These essential email authentication methods prevent spoofing and impersonation attempts.

Graymail Filtering

Keep inboxes clear of distractions with smart graymail filtering that separates newsletters, bulk marketing, and other non-malicious communication. This ensures employees stay focused on critical business communications, improving productivity across the organization.

Outbound Email Scanning

Protect your brand reputation and prevent data loss with outbound message scanning that inspects all outgoing email traffic. By detecting malware, spam, and signs of compromise before they leave your network, you preserve sender reputation and prevent IP blacklisting.

End-User Quarantine Digest

Give users control while simplifying and easing IT workloads with a self-service quarantine. On-demand digest reports and the option for users to release messages help streamline email handling, while keeping admins in full control through policy-based permissions.

Seamless Integration with Microsoft 365

Native integration with Microsoft 365 leverages secure API-based access to deliver full visibility and control across user mailboxes. Automated directory synchronization via Azure AD (Entra ID) ensures rapid provisioning and continuous alignment with your organization’s structure. This approach eliminates the need for complex mail flow changes, while enabling centralized management, multi-tenant support, and automated post-delivery remediation, including organization-wide email retraction.

GravityZone Extended Email Security for MSP

How do I get started with GravityZone Extended Email Security?

GravityZone Extended Email Security can be added to an existing Bitdefender license. Just fill out our Inquiry Form, and a Bitdefender representative will contact you to guide you through the next steps.

How does the API-enabled protection work?

API-based protection continuously monitors email after it’s been delivered, detecting and remediating threats that may have passed through perimeter defenses. Unlike traditional email security filtering, it doesn’t filter attacks before they reach users but focuses on mitigating threats even if they have reached a user's inbox. The API-based protection can be deployed within minutes, even if an existing security email gateway (SEG) is in place.

How can I deploy the solution?

Deployment is flexible and you can choose to deploy either perimeter protection (MX based) or mailbox protection (API-based), or both. The full installation guide can be found in our Support Center: Extended Email Security.

How does GravityZone Extended Email Security protect against email threats?

The solution applies over 250 unique filters to every single email it processes, protecting against all email attacks. Combining machine learning, predictive threat intelligence and advanced content analysis, GravityZone Extended Email Security identifies indicators of compromise, fraud, BEC, impersonation, phishing, malicious content, spam, and unsolicited marketing emails, keeping organizations and their employees' inboxes clean.
