Feature requirements & definitions

Connection security enforcement, Inbound; DMARC, SPF, DKIM, Fraud Analysis

Full Support: Connection security enforcement for DMARC, SPF, DKIM performed at the time-of-delivery by an email gateway. These gateways can be virtual (SaaS), hosted (IaaS), and on-prem. If a non-gateway solution enforces DMARC, SPF, and DKIM before delivery, it may also be considered "full support".

Full Support Advanced: Provides the features of full support +AI/ML to enhance DMARC, SPF, and DKIM protections reputationally or behaviorally.

Partial Support: DMARC, SPF, DKIM, fraud analysis validation is performed after delivery rather than connection-level enforcement..

Answers the question: Answers the question: Does the vendor provide DMARC, SPF, DKIM protections?

Inbound anti-Fraud; reverse lookup, fake domain, lookalikes, domain authentication

Full Support: Connection security enforcement for reverse look-ups/ fake & look-alike domains, and internal authentication. Solution enforces these inbound rules by removing the email from the inbox.

Full Support: Advanced: Provides the features of full support +AI/ML to enhance DNS reverse look-ups/ fake & look-alike domains, and internal authentication protections reputationally or behaviorally

Partial support: Connection security notification for reverse look-ups/ fake & look-alike domains, and internal authentication.

Answers the question: Does the vendor provide DNS reverse look-ups/ fake & look-alike domains, and internal authentication protections?

Anti-malware

Full Support: This product claims it can stop inbound virus and malware email threats in the body or attachment.

In Message User Alerting

Secure Email delivery (encryption)

Full Support: Provides secure email delivery; by storing the email in cloud infrastructure for secure email retrieval leveraging PKI. The ability to see if the email was accessed as well as the ability to revoke email access is required for full support.

DLP

Full Support: API based mailbox scanning providing real time DLP (Data Loss Prevention) controls as well as historical DLP reports that will help prevent data build-up (helps with ATO risk management)

Full Support Advanced: +OCR, +AI/ML for policies and detection

Partial Support: leverages regex to scan email as accessed

User Awareness Training/ Phish simulation

Full Support: ability to run phish simulations, ability to provide pre-packaged end user email security training

Partial Support: No phish simulation but provides an end user notifications by re-writing links in spam, when the user clicks a link they are redirected to training

ATO Detection & Lockdown

Full Support: Detects and prevents ATO (Account Take Over) by limiting mass downloads or by leveraging user behavior for ATO detection.

Full Support Advanced: Has native AI/ML, MFA, and advanced DLP capabilities working together to prevent ATO

Partial support: can detect but not prevent ATO, only notifies

User Behavior

Full support: Vendor leverages user behavioral analysis and is able to detect anomalies in its email security feature-set

AI/ ML NLP blockchain

Full support: Vendor leverages AI/ ML, NLP, and or blockchain analysis and is able to detect anomalies in its email security feature-set

Architecture

Cloud API SaaS: Email security as a service that bolts onto your existing email solution via API integration. this architecture usually carries advanced capabilities that leverage cloud based AI/ML, and behavioral analysis

Hosted Gateway IaaS: Email security gateway hosted as a service in the cloud

On-Prem Gateway: Email security gateway installed on-premise in your org.

Hybrid: a mix of cloud and on-prem architectures that work together

Managed: The vendor provides complete management, has SLA's
