Product release information for VIPRE Integrated Email Security, released on 2025 July 08.
What's New
We are thrilled to introduce the initial release of VIPRE Integrated Email Security (IES)! VIPRE IES is a cutting-edge, cloud-native email security solution that protects organizations from the ever-evolving landscape of email-borne threats. It seamlessly enhances Microsoft 365 environments by leveraging advanced, AI-driven threat detection to provide robust, real-time protection.
Unlike traditional email security solutions that can introduce latency or complexity, VIPRE IES integrates effortlessly via API. This ensures a smooth and non-disruptive implementation, allowing for continuous email flow without compromising security. VIPRE IES delivers comprehensive protection by extending VIPRE's proven security technologies to encompass both external and internal email communications. This holistic approach helps to close common security gaps that are often overlooked, significantly strengthening an organization's defense posture. The solution is particularly adept at combating sophisticated attacks such as Business Email Compromise (BEC) and advanced social engineering schemes, utilizing powerful AI engines to identify and neutralize these threats before they can impact your operations.
Compatibility with other email sources, like Google Workspace, is on the roadmap and coming soon! Watch the release notes space for updates.

Beta Test Summary
Throughout the Spring and early Summer, we've been conducting the VIPRE IES beta test on the VIPRE Beta Alliance, and we're thrilled with the insights and progress we've made.
Our beta testers have provided invaluable feedback, helping us to identify and address key areas for improvement. The testing focused on VIPRE IES's core functionalities, including:
- AI-driven threat detection: Testers confirmed the effectiveness of our Semantic Similarity Matching and Intent Matching engines in identifying sophisticated phishing, BEC, and social engineering attempts that often evade traditional security solutions.
- Seamless Microsoft 365 integration: The API-driven deployment proved to be as smooth and non-disruptive as designed, allowing for continuous email flow without compromising security.
- Comprehensive protection across internal and external communications: Testers validated VIPRE IES's ability to close common security gaps by monitoring both inbound and internal-to-internal email traffic.
We received a significant volume of feedback, including ideas and issues, which were crucial in refining the product's stability and performance. The collaborative nature of the VIPRE Beta Alliance allowed for quick identification and resolution of issues, leading to a much more robust and polished solution for general availability. User engagement remained high throughout the testing period, demonstrating strong interest in VIPRE IES's capabilities.
Resolutions from ideas that were submitted during our beta test include:
Recently Implemented
- Option to Enable/Disable Action Rules: We've successfully implemented the ability to enable or disable Action Rules (formerly known as Policies), incorporating valuable feedback from our users.
Coming Soon
- Integration with SIEM Services: Get ready for enhanced visibility! We'll soon be integrating with SIEM services to provide a more comprehensive security overview.
- Banner with Verdict Details: A new banner feature is on its way, providing clear details on the verdict (malicious or suspicious) directly within your email interface.
Under Consideration for Future Releases
- Customized Column Order on Message Logs Screen: We're looking into adding the flexibility to customize the column order on your Message Logs screen for a more personalized experience.
- Outlook Add-in: An Outlook Add-in is also being considered to streamline your email security interactions directly within your Outlook environment.
Overall, the beta test was a resounding success, providing the critical real-world validation needed to bring VIPRE IES to market confidently. We extend our sincere gratitude to all the participants in the VIPRE Beta Alliance for their dedication and invaluable contributions.
