Email Protection
Advanced email security, cloud archiving and Microsoft 365 backup, powered by Barracuda, Connectwise or Mimecast and managed by Claranet.
Challenges we solve
Sophisticated email attacks
Phishing, business email compromise and impersonation attacks are designed to bypass native Microsoft 365 security, putting your people and data at risk every day.
Data loss and accidental deletion
Without proper backup, a single accidental or malicious deletion can wipe out critical emails, SharePoint data and OneDrive files with no way to recover them.
Compliance and retention obligations
GDPR, legal hold requirements and industry regulations demand long-term email retention with searchable archives — something native M365 tools struggle to deliver at scale.
Account takeover and credential theft
Compromised accounts are used to send fraud emails from within your organisation. You need AI-driven detection to spot anomalous behaviour and contain the breach.
What is Claranet Email Protection?
Claranet Email Protection is a comprehensive managed service that combines three pillars: email security, cloud archiving and Microsoft 365 backup — all powered by Barracuda and fully managed by Claranet.
The email security layer goes beyond what native M365 offers, providing spam and malware filtering, real-time URL sandboxing, attachment detonation, email encryption, data loss prevention and email continuity during outages. AI-powered impersonation protection detects business email compromise, account takeover attempts and socially engineered attacks in real time.
Cloud archiving provides a compliant, indexed archive with granular retention policies, legal hold, role-based access and powerful search. The M365 backup service delivers unlimited cloud-to-cloud backup for Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams and Groups with fast point-in-time recovery.
