INKY Email Security
College Park, Maryland
What it is
INKY Email Security is a cloud, web-based email security platform for Microsoft 365, including Exchange Online, and Google Workspace. It analyzes messages for phishing, malware, impersonation, and social engineering threats. Its Phish Fence engine combines AI, computer vision, sender authentication, and behavioral analysis. Email Assistant banners provide guidance across more than 80 categories and 35 languages. Advanced includes inbound and internal protection, QR-code and lookalike detection, time-of-click URL protection, attachment analysis, and graymail detection. Pro adds GenAI intent analysis, outbound DLP detection, dangerous reply detection, encryption, DMARC monitoring, and approval workflows. Deployment connects without MX-record changes, with a setup process described as taking 20–30 minutes. Licensing is per user per month based on active mailbox count, while shared and resource mailboxes do not add INKY billing. Pricing is on request, and a free trial is available. Message history covers six months.
