Safeguarding Our Digital Outreach

What differentiates Avanan from other similar products?
Avanan truly shines in its ability to provide comprehensive anti-phishing security across an organization's entire cloud email and collaboration ecosystem. Its multi-layered AI-driven approach effectively detects even the most sophisticated phishing attempts.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
In the marketing world, brand trust is everything. A single successful phishing attack spoofing our brand could irreparably tarnish our hard-earned reputation. Avanan's anti-phishing filters proactively scan all external emails, attachments, and URLs to flag potential lures before they reach our audiences. Its computer vision algorithms are brilliant at detecting even the subtlest brand impersonations.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Avanan's cloud architecture could potentially add minor latency when scanning emails during peak campaign periods with massive distribution lists. An on-premise filtering option may be optimal for extremely time-sensitive email blasts.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
As a marketing leader, I've seen how phishing has changed from simple credential theft to complex brand deception. Bad actors are using our brand messaging and creative assets to make their schemes look credible. Conventional anti-phishing tools couldn't keep up with these sophisticated attacks. Avanan's comprehensive approach finally gave us the email security we needed. It uses machine learning and computer vision to detect brand inaccuracies. It also removes lures before delivery. With Avanan, we can promote with confidence.
