Diving deep into Safe Links policies – protecting your users from malicious URLs
Implementing Safe Links policies through Microsoft Defender for Office 365 plays a pivotal role in shielding your organization from phishing threats. These policies actively scan and authenticate hyperlinks in real time, deterring users from visiting harmful sites that could result in malware infections, data compromises, or phishing schemes. Moreover, Safe Links provide protection the moment a link is clicked, maintaining defense against threats, even if a website’s risk level changes over time. Additionally, hyperlinks are modified before being sent to ensure continuous protection under the established Safe Links configurations, even when messages or links are forwarded. Organizations have the flexibility to tailor their security strategies, selecting specific URLs to either restrict or permit and adjusting protection intensity based on different user segments.
