||||

||||

## 🛠️ How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
When you visit a website or open an email, Enterprise App Protection **automatically scans all links** and determines if they are safe:
|
||||
|
||||
1️⃣ **Identifies mentions of enterprise applications** (like "Microsoft 365" or "DocuSign") in links.
|
||||
2️⃣ **Checks if links point to the official domain** or an **impersonation site**.
|
||||
3️⃣ **Uses Google Safe Browsing API** to detect additional phishing and malware threats.
|
||||
4️⃣ **Monitors dynamic content in Outlook Web, Teams, and SharePoint**, ensuring links added after page load are also checked.
|
||||
5️⃣ **Displays clear warnings** if an impersonation attempt is detected.
|
||||
|
||||
If a phishing attempt is found, a **warning is shown directly below the link**, alerting you before you click.
|
||||
