EOP is the Microsoft long-term solution to protect not only mailboxes in Office 365, but also tens of millions of mailboxes on premise mail servers of our customers.
Here are some of the key areas of investments Microsoft is making with EOP over the next six to twelve months:
- Advanced threat protection, such as “Time of Click” and “Zero-day” protection.

- Improved protection against bulk mail.
- Detailed reporting and message-tracking enhancements.
