Every time I think there is something cool that is released, some even more interesting is going to be released into Office 365. Let’s focus on Advanced Threat Protection (ATP). Back in November there was announcement made that ATP was being expanded to protect Office, SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business; I blogged about it here - http://www.astaticstate.com/2016/11/new-atp-features-for-office-sharepoint.html
Well there are some more features being released to ATP that are truly exciting.
First
URL Detonation is being added. What this will do is protect you against links to files. If a user clicks on a link like below, what ATP will do is scan the file for anything malicious prior to providing the user access to the file. This is in addition to what ATP already does with the
Safe Links feature (checking the reputation of the URL).
Second,
Dynamic Delivery is being added to the
Safe Attachments feature. What this will do is continue to send an email to a user which the attachments are being scanned. The user will see a stub in Outlook telling them that their attachments are being scanned, and once scanning has been completed, they will be provided access to the email attachments. Users will not have to wait as long now for getting their emails that are going through Safe Attachment analysis.
If the user clicks on the stub, they will be given a progress of the analysis.
It is truly existing to see these types of features being released in the ATP service.
