Executive Summary
Enterprise Email Threat Protection — Delivered Within Budget
INOX India Ltd (INOXCVA), one of India's most respected industrial engineering conglomerates, needed to modernise
their email security infrastructure. Their existing solution was leaving critical gaps in phishing defence, BEC
(Business Email Compromise) protection, and zero-day malware detection — creating operational risk across a 1,300+
user environment.
VCAN Tech proposed and implemented VIPRE Email Security Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) — a
next-generation, AI-driven secure email gateway that delivers enterprise capabilities at a cost comparable to
conventional solutions. The outcome: zero email security incidents across eight consecutive months of live
deployment.
The Challenge
A Growing Threat Surface, Outpacing Legacy Defences
With cyberattacks on Indian enterprises surging — India ranked among the top 5 globally most targeted nations for
phishing and ransomware in 2024 — INOXCVA's IT leadership recognised that their existing email security stack was
no longer sufficient. The organisation needed a comprehensive upgrade that delivered meaningfully more protection
without increasing costs.
Key Gaps in the Previous Email Security Setup
- Limited AI/ML-based phishing detection — sophisticated spear-phishing and BEC attacks
slipping through filters
- No behavioural sandboxing for weaponised attachments — malicious PDFs, Office macros, and
executables undetected
- Weak URL rewriting and click-time protection — malicious links going unchecked after email
delivery
- Minimal email threat analytics visibility — incident response was reactive rather than
proactive
- High false positive rate causing legitimate email delays and increased IT helpdesk overhead
- No Microsoft 365 deep integration for post-delivery threat remediation
- Limited outbound filtering and DLP capability for compliance requirements
The Solution
VIPRE Email Security ATP — Intelligent, Layered & Cost-Effective
VCAN Tech recommended VIPRE Email Security Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) — engineered to defeat the most
sophisticated email-borne threats, including those that evade traditional signature-based defences. Designed to
give organisations enterprise-level protection without enterprise-level complexity or cost, VIPRE ATP was the
clear fit for INOXCVA.
Why VIPRE ATP Was the Right Fit for INOXCVA
- Full-spectrum multi-layered email security covering inbound, outbound, and internal email
flows
- Advanced AI and machine learning that detects the intent behind phishing and BEC, not just
known signatures
- Cloud-native with seamless Microsoft 365 integration — zero additional infrastructure
required
- No increase in cost — delivering significantly more advanced features within the existing
security budget
- Backed by VIPRE's 25+ year threat intelligence cloud — one of the world's largest
- Recognised with the AV-Comparatives Advanced+ Award (March 2025) for malware protection
excellence
Core Capabilities Deployed
Every Layer of the Email Threat Kill Chain — Covered
AI-Driven Phishing & BEC Detection
Analyses emotional cues, language manipulation, and sender behaviour to catch spear-phishing and BEC that
bypass rule-based filters — including payload-less attacks.
Attachment Sandboxing
Suspicious attachments detonated in isolated cloud VMs. Behaviour compared to known malware via machine
learning — blocking zero-day document threats before inbox delivery.
URL Rewriting & Click-Time Protection
Every URL is rewritten and re-evaluated at the moment of click. Links that turn malicious after delivery
are
blocked before any user reaches them.
Real-Time Visual Threat Analytics
Visual dashboards give INOXCVA's IT team complete visibility into attack trends, threat origins, and
user-level risk — enabling proactive, evidence-based security decisions.
M365 Integration & Post-Delivery Remediation
VIPRE retroactively removes malicious emails from inboxes even after delivery — critical for threats that
mature or activate hours after the original send time.
Email Continuity (90-Day)
During any mail server outage, all 1,300+ INOXCVA users continue to send and receive email seamlessly —
zero
business disruption, guaranteed.
Anti-Spam & Anti-Spoofing Engine
Six-layer scanning filters spam, bulk mail, spoofed domains, and impersonation attacks with 99.9%+
effectiveness and industry-leading low false positive rates.
Outbound Filtering & DLP
Outbound email scanning prevents sensitive data leakage, supporting compliance obligations for listed
Indian
companies under SEBI and IT Act frameworks.
Global Threat Intelligence Cloud
Continuously learns from billions of analysed emails globally — 1.45 billion assessed in Q1 2025 alone —
keeping INOXCVA ahead of emerging and novel threats.
