Menlo Security Extends its Cloud-based Isolation Platform

Menlo Security has extended its cloud-based isolation platform, which prevents web-based malware from infecting local by running the browser in a cloud-based container, to now also stop email threats including malicious links, credential theft and weaponized attachments. The new solution effectively prevents targeted email phishing attacks, which are a major cybersecurity concern for enterprises.

Menlo Security said its Phishing Isolation solution was developed in close collaboration with Fortune 500 customers, to specifically address prevention shortfalls in existing secure email gateway products. The solution can be integrated with existing email infrastructure including Exchange, Gmail and Office 365. By leveraging patented Adaptive Clientless Rendering (ACR) technologies, the new solution enables enterprise-wide deployment of isolation security without the need to deploy or manage endpoint software, dramatically reducing risks without impacting the user experience.

The Menlo solution is available either on-premises, as-a-service via the cloud, or as part of a managed security service.

JPMorgan Chase is named as lead customer for the Menlo Security Phishing Isolation Platform.

“Email persists as the top malware infection vector for enterprises, resulting in many forms of theft and fraud,” said Poornima DeBolle, co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Menlo Security. “Adding phishing Isolation capabilities to the MSIP creates the only phishing prevention solution that completely eliminates targeted spear-phishing attacks and drive-by exploits by isolating all email links and attachments. By stopping this top infection vector, Menlo enables CISOs to report definitive progress against malware attacks to their boards of directors, while also freeing up precious cyber security incident-response resources within their teams.”
