Following Microsoft's announcement of the Teams API, Avanan is announcing general availability of its security application for Teams, enabling Avanan customers to apply additional remediation actions on malicious content and data leakage in the Teams environment.
As business communication continues to expand from email to additional platforms, Avanan extends the security layers of anti-phishing, malware and DLP protection to Teams.
Avanan dashboards and reporting provide detailed statistics on Teams usage and security violations.
"Our research has shown that when a Microsoft 365 account is compromised, hackers attempt to spread the attack internally not just by email, but through other services such as Microsoft Teams, OneDrive and SharePoint," said Avanan CEO and co-founder Gil Friedrich.
"We are pleased to see Avanan extend their capabilities for Microsoft 365 to help our mutual customers protect their files and data in Teams."
