Microsoft ATP?

Microsoft ATP stands for Advanced Threat Protection, an advanced security solution designed to shield our email communication and data from sophisticated cyber threats. It acts as an additional layer of defense, detecting and safeguarding against malicious content, phishing attempts, and other potential risks that could compromise our systems.

Why Implement Enhanced Mail Scanning? 

Enhanced mail scanning involves improved protocols for scanning incoming emails and attachments. This heightened scrutiny ensures that all incoming emails and their attachments undergo thorough validation and security checks before reaching your inbox. The goal is to create a safer email environment by identifying and preventing potential threats at an early stage.

What to Expect?

During this implementation, you may notice a slight delay in the delivery of email attachments. This delay occurs as emails and their attachments undergo meticulous scanning and validation to ensure they are free from any potential threats. This extra layer of scrutiny might cause a brief delay but guarantees a safer experience when interacting with emails.

Your security is our priority. We kindly ask for your understanding and patience during this transition period.
