Slack

Overview

Slack is a messaging platform designed for the workplace. It offers employees and external collaborators to chat, meet online, and share files. Email Security adds security, privacy, and compliance to Slack by scanning messages and files for malicious content and data leakage (DLP) and generates actionable events on malicious content.

Email Security scans the messages and files shared through direct messaging or channels (private (internal users) and private-to-public channels).

How it Works

Email Security adds a layer of security that provides these security features for Slack:

  • Data Leak Prevention (DLP): Protecting sensitive text messages and files

  • Anti-Malware: Scanning of files for malicious content

  • URL Reputation: Blocking malicious links within files and messages

  • Remediation: Tombstoning malicious files or sensitive files and messages
