The main use case for Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is to protect incoming and outgoing emails. We use Microsoft Office 365 as the platform, integrating it with Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration. Our client environment uses Outlook, and we wanted to set up email security directly after Microsoft Office. Microsoft Office performs the first layer of inspection, and then Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration inspects anything Office 365 missed. If an email contains anything malicious, it is not delivered to the end user, providing DLP capabilities for sensitive data as well.
