Bamboozle Cyber Protect

Advanced Email Security

Stop phishing, business email compromise and malicious attachments before they reach a Microsoft 365 inbox — with detection that catches what native filtering does not.

How Bamboozle Advanced Email Security worksInbound mail is analysed before delivery: attachments are detonated, links are resolved and sender behaviour is checked. Clean mail is delivered, threats are quarantined, and detections feed the incident timeline. External mail Attachments Links Internal mail Dynamic analysis Delivered Blocked Microsoft 365 · API integration, no MX change

Email is still where most breaches start, and the attacks that succeed are the ones built to survive a standard filter: a clean-looking link that weaponises after delivery, an invoice in a password-protected archive, a supplier address off by one character. Bamboozle Advanced Email Security scans every message with dynamic analysis, not just signatures — and does it in milliseconds, before the message lands.

Key Capabilities

What It Does

Layered on top of Microsoft 365 — no MX record changes, no mail routed through an external proxy.

  • Dynamic Attachment Analysis

    Attachments are detonated and analysed rather than matched against signatures — including password-protected archives, which most filters wave through because they cannot open them.

  • URL Analysis at Click Time

    Links are checked when the message arrives and again when a user clicks. A URL that is harmless at delivery and weaponised an hour later is the standard evasion, and it fails here.

  • Impersonation and BEC Detection

    Look-alike domains, display-name spoofing and payment-redirect language are flagged by behavioural analysis. The invoice fraud that works has no malware in it at all — nothing for a signature engine to find.

  • QR Code and Image Attacks

    Malicious QR codes in images and PDFs are extracted and resolved. Quishing exists specifically because the payload is not text, and text-based filtering never sees it.

  • Incident Feed Into XDR

    Email detections flow into the same incident view as endpoint and identity signals, so a phishing click and the process it started downstream appear as one attack chain instead of two unrelated alerts.

  • Minimal Added Latency

    Scanning runs in seconds, not minutes. Security that delays mail delivery gets switched off within a month, which is why throughput is treated as a requirement rather than a trade-off.

Deployment

How It Works

Connected by API in minutes. No MX change, no mail flow cutover, no downtime.

  1. Connect by API

    Authorise the integration against your Microsoft 365 tenant. Because it connects natively rather than sitting in front of your MX record, there is no mail routing change and nothing to cut over.

  2. Set Policy

    Decide what happens to each verdict — blocked outright, quarantined for review, or delivered with a warning banner. Policies can differ by group, so finance can be treated more strictly than everyone else.

  3. Scan Every Message

    Inbound mail is analysed before delivery: attachments detonated, URLs resolved, sender behaviour checked against patterns. Internal mail is scanned too, which is what catches a compromised colleague.

  4. Review and Release

    Admins see every verdict with the reasoning behind it and can release a false positive in one click. Detections feed the incident timeline so the email is linked to whatever happened next.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this not what Microsoft Defender for Office 365 already does?
Defender is a competent first layer and this runs alongside it rather than replacing it. The gap it fills is evasive threats: attachments in password-protected archives, URLs that weaponise after delivery, QR-code payloads, and impersonation mail containing no malicious content at all. Layered filtering catches meaningfully more than either layer alone.
Do we need to change our MX records?
No. The service connects to Microsoft 365 through a native API integration rather than sitting in front of your mail flow as a gateway. That means no MX change, no cutover window, and no single point of failure added to mail delivery.
Will it slow our email down?
Analysis completes in seconds. The practical effect for users is not noticeable — which matters, because email security that visibly delays mail gets disabled by popular demand.
What happens to a false positive?
It sits in quarantine with the verdict and the reasoning attached, and an admin releases it in one click. You can also let users review their own quarantine for lower-severity verdicts if you would rather not route every release through IT.
Does it scan internal email?
Yes. Internal mail scanning is what catches a compromised account inside your own tenant sending to colleagues — mail that never crosses a perimeter gateway and is trusted by default in most configurations.
Does it work with Google Workspace?
The current Bamboozle offering is built around Microsoft 365. If Google Workspace is a requirement, talk to us — the underlying platform supports it and we can scope it.
How does this relate to awareness training?
They solve the same problem from opposite ends. Filtering removes most of what would reach people; awareness training prepares them for what gets through, which is never zero. Running both is how the number of successful phishing attacks actually falls.
How is it priced?
Per mailbox per month. Volume affects the rate — contact our team for a quote based on your mailbox count.
