Malwarebytes has introduced a powerful new addition to its ThreatDown security suite, an advanced email protection module designed to combat rising email-based cyber threats. This latest solution integrates seamlessly with existing ThreatDown products, offering businesses a unified approach to safeguarding both endpoints and email communications from sophisticated attacks.
The ThreatDown Email Security module leverages IRONSCALES’ AI-driven technology to provide automatic threat detection and filtering, significantly reducing the workload for IT teams. Available now for direct customers and rolling out to MSPs in August, the platform promises effortless deployment with minimal administrative effort, a critical advantage for organizations with limited security resources.
Recent data shows phishing attacks now cost businesses an average of $4.88 million per breach, underscoring the urgent need for stronger email defenses. The new module addresses this challenge by blocking phishing attempts, business email compromise (BEC), malware, and credential theft before they reach users.
Integration with Malwarebytes Nebula and OneView ensures streamlined management, allowing IT administrators to monitor and respond to threats across endpoints and email from a single dashboard. This unified approach not only enhances security but also reduces operational complexity, a major pain point for many organizations.
“ThreatDown Email Security delivers enterprise-grade protection without the usual headaches,” said Chris Couture, Director of IT at Feeding Tampa Bay. “Its automated filtering lets us focus on other priorities while keeping our email environment secure.”
Marcin Kleczynski, CEO of Malwarebytes, emphasized the strategic importance of the partnership with IRONSCALES, stating that combining their AI-powered email security with ThreatDown’s endpoint protection creates a comprehensive defense system against evolving cyber threats.
Eyal Benishti, CEO of IRONSCALES, highlighted the collaboration’s potential to redefine email security, noting that their machine learning technology enhances ThreatDown’s ability to detect and neutralize advanced phishing campaigns at scale.
Key advantages of the new module include:
- Automated threat detection powered by adaptive AI
- Seamless integration with existing ThreatDown platforms
- Reduced administrative burden through intelligent filtering
- Enterprise-grade protection for businesses of all sizes
With cybercriminals increasingly targeting email as a primary attack vector, ThreatDown Email Security provides a critical layer of defense, helping organizations stay ahead of threats while maintaining operational efficiency.
