The Graphus platform, now from Kaseya (acquired August 2020) automates protection from cyber threats related to social engineering and spear phishing.
When deploying to a client who is very sensitive to email routing disruptions like those that can occur by putting an email filter in front of the email server, IRONSCALES deployment is extremely simple. It hooks into the user's mailbox, and not only filters point forward but a number of days back.
Protection against cyberattacks and other associated threats. It has worked within our organization as we have not been compromised in the last couple of years as has been the case for several others in our field and those in other organizations that you hear and see in the news these days. Watch for dropoffs requiring you to restart your computer.
Postini, Windows Defender (built into M365) & Trend Micro email security. Postini was purchased by Google and then went away. Trend Micro was very basic at the time I used it (many years ago) and utilized purely blacklisting tech but that was before the AI boom. Windows Defender is not as multi-tenant friendly.
Both provided good protection. Protection against cyberattacks and other associated threats.

Understanding its limitations with regards to cyber security education campaigns
Rigid domain lists. Might be attributed to how we purchase through a distributor but if a client needs to add a monitored domain name, it must be requested instead of allowing me to do it myself.
Unclear if there have ever been any outages or service disruptions. Since it is monitoring mailboxes and not routing email, there is no outage client side. This could be a benefit but it also means end users might be unprotected during an outage.
