Case Study: Real Estate Investment Firm Stops Malware and Data Loss with SafeGuard Cyber

Real Estate Investment Firm Stops Malware in M365 Email, Data Leakage in Teams

A Real Estate Investment Firm turned to SafeGuard Cyber to better understand security gaps in its Microsoft E5 business communications environment. The organization lacked visibility into Teams messages and needed more proactive controls for M365 email, especially as malware and data loss risks were emerging across its collaboration tools.

SafeGuard Cyber rapidly deployed via APIs to the firm’s cloud email and Teams environments, giving the security team unified visibility and detection across channels. The platform flagged malware and social engineering language that evaded Microsoft Defender, and exposed sensitive data such as bank account and wire transfer details in clear text within Teams. As a result, the firm can now monitor and measure risk across communications in one place, improving protection, compliance, and its Microsoft E5 investment.
