Mid-market and enterprise security teams managing Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace without dedicated email security should pick BLOKWORX SCUD + CDR for its API-first architecture that detects compromised accounts and BEC without touching MX records or requiring external visibility. The proxyless deployment means no gateway bottleneck, and the built-in SIEM and SOAR capabilities for email and account activity eliminate the separate tool tax most teams absorb. Skip this if you need advanced forensics on encrypted email content or run legacy on-premises mail servers; BLOKWORX is cloud-native by design.
Fortinet FortiMail Email Security
Mid-market and enterprise teams defending Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace environments should prioritize FortiMail for its pattern-based anomaly detection, which catches business email compromise and account takeover attempts that signature-only solutions miss. The platform's dual protection via gateway and API, combined with real-time FortiGuard threat intelligence, covers both inbound phishing and outbound data exfiltration, scoring strong on NIST DE.CM continuous monitoring. Skip this if your organization needs deep Slack or third-party collaboration app coverage; FortiMail's strength is email-specific, not broader communication channels.
