Overview
ATP Safe Attachments with ATP Safe Links are part of Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection (ATP). The ATP Safe Attachments feature checks to see if email attachments are malicious and then take action to protect your organization. The ATP Safe Attachments feature protects your organization according to ATP Safe Attachments policies that are set by your Office 365 global or security administrators. ATP protection can also be extended to files in SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business, and Microsoft Teams.
People regularly send, receive, and share attachments, such as documents, presentations, spreadsheets, and more. It’s not always easy to tell whether an attachment is safe or malicious just by looking at an email message. And the last thing you want is a malicious attachment to get through, wreaking havoc for your organization.
This blog post shows how you can set up ATP Safe Attachments policies to help ensure that your organization is protected against attacks by unsafe email attachments.
