Avanan's AI is specifically trained on the attacks that Microsoft misses. That's only possible if Microsoft actually misses attacks. It does.
As we found in the 2020 ATP report, as an independent layer of security, ATP misses 18% of the attacks that bypass EOP. In some environments, that rate can be higher.
It's no wonder, then, that we're seeing companies ditch ATP and secure their environments with Avanan.
We've analyzed a number of our clients who have switched from ATP to Avanan and are displaying their reasons for doing so below. While their names have been redacted, all are available for reference.
Our free 14-day trial can show you exactly what ATP company is missing and how Avanan would better protect it instead.
