Case Study: City of Danville stops malicious email attachments with InQuest MailTAC

The City of Danville Opts for InQuest to Thwart Malicious Email Attachments

The City of Danville, a local government with limited budget and IT staff, faced significant challenges with its previous email security platform, Mimecast. The solution was allowing malicious attachments through to users and lacked adequate customer support. After a test demonstrated that hundreds of malware samples could bypass their defenses, the city turned to InQuest and its MailTAC solution.

By implementing InQuest MailTAC, the city gained Deep File Inspection and automated threat-hunting features. This freed up their team's time and allowed users to report suspicious emails easily. The measurable impact was substantial, as InQuest prevented 2,494 pieces of malware from reaching user inboxes, effectively blocking threats like phishing campaigns and ransomware.
