[THEME] Malware

What does Attic do?

Attic verifies that Microsoft's built-in malware protection features are enabled and properly configured to catch malicious files across SharePoint, OneDrive, and email.

The checks in this theme cover:

• Microsoft Defender for SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams is enabled
• Outlook add-in restrictions are in place to prevent malicious extensions
• Safe Attachments is enabled to scan email attachments in a sandbox
• Dangerous file type filters are active to block known risky attachment types

Why is this important?

Malware can enter your organization through email attachments, shared files in SharePoint, or OneDrive uploads. By enabling scanning and blocking of malicious content at the cloud level, you prevent malware from reaching employee devices. This is a critical layer of defense in addition to endpoint protection.
