  "account": "Cybersecurity firm Proofpoint has launched several new Microsoft 365 security features designed to assist managed service providers (MSPs) and their clients with adopting AI tools safely. The four new offerings are integrated into Proofpoint's MSP Platform, which caters to managed service providers and small and midsize businesses.\n\nThe first feature, Tenant Risk Exposure, maps permission and sharing risks across Microsoft 365 tenants. This dashboard allows administrators to identify tenants with anonymous access and inactive guest accounts, providing a shortcut to address each issue manually or automatically.\n\nSecondly, Email Live Tracking now includes explanations from Proofpoint's AI on how a message was evaluated, potentially speeding up the resolution of false positives.\n\nThirdly, Proofpoint has expanded its security awareness training into Microsoft Teams, where employees receive AI-powered coaching after completing an e-learning session. The AI Cyber Assistant, known as AI.MY, asks follow-up questions tailored to each employee's awareness level, providing immediate feedback and updating a knowledge profile to assess learning progress.\n\nLastly, an AI assistant for partners and administrators is now available within Proofpoint 365 Total Protection. This conversational AI tool assists with onboarding, configuration, and ongoing security operations, enabling managed service providers to quickly match products to clients and identify opportunities to extend protection. By automating these tasks, Proofpoint expects to reduce the effort required for customer consultations. The four new features are set to roll out to over 12,000 managed service providers and channel partners, who serve more than 125,000 customers, within the fourth quarter.",
