IRONSCALES Email Protect

IRONSCALES Email Protect is a cloud email-security product that scans links and attachments and uses Adaptive AI with customizable automation. Its detection covers phishing, business email compromise, VIP impersonation, QR code attacks, and generative AI attacks. Themis automatically classifies, clusters, and remediates threats identified by machine learning or reported by users. Native API connections support Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace without MX record changes or agents. The platform can also connect with SIEM, SOAR, XDR, and EDR systems for incident-response workflows. Optional email encryption uses OTP and AES-256 encryption in transit and at rest; a separate add-on provides policy-triggered encryption with DLP templates for HIPAA, PCI, and GDPR. IRONSCALES describes a threat intelligence network of more than 36,000 security professionals across more than 18,000 organizations. The company states it is SOC 2 Type II certified, with the report available to customers by written request. Pricing is on request, and a 14-day free trial is available. Listed platforms are Android, iOS, API, and web.
