MS.EXO.15.2v1 - Direct download links SHOULD be scanned for malware.

Information

URLs in emails may direct users to download and run malware. Scanning direct download links in real-time for known malware and blocking access can prevent users from infecting their devices.

NOTE: Nessus has provided the target output to assist in reviewing the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Any product meeting the requirements outlined in this baseline policy may be
used. If the agency uses Microsoft Defender for Office 365, see the following
implementation steps for
[enabling preset security policies](./defender.md#msdefender13v1), which
include Safe Links protections to scan links to files for malware.
