Clariter eliminates the risk of email malware with FileWall by odix and Microsoft 365

Taking plastic nobody wants and transforming it into products everybody needs

With offices in Israel, Poland, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands, Clariter is an international clean-tech company with a revolutionary chemical upcycling technology that ends the life of plastics by transforming plastic waste into high-value industrial products, such as oils, waxes, and solvents. The pure fossil-fuel alternatives are then used as ingredients to make over 1,000 clean end-user and consumer products. Clariter transforms plastic waste nobody wants into products everybody needs, enabling a “clean slate” for the industry. 

The footprint of Clariter's upcycling process is net carbon negative and preferable to landfill, incineration, and other pyrolysis-based solutions. The company’s technology is proven through an operational pilot plant in Gliwice, Poland, and a demonstration plant in East London, South Africa. 

Since its formation in 2003, Clariter has grown to nearly 100 employees in five countries. With its expanding global presence, Clariter has also increased its risks of cyberattacks on its critical data and daily operations. That’s where FileWall by odix comes in.

Based in Israel, the United States, Luxembourg, and Italy, odix is a CDR cybersecurity company providing preventative cybersecurity solutions to enterprises of all sizes. Available on Microsoft AppSource and built to enhance the security capabilities of Exchange Online, the company’s FileWall add-on makes affordable malware protection available for the masses.

The problem: malware

With the vast majority of malware delivered via email, Clariter needed a way to secure its email gateway from malware attacks. With nearly 100 users and many more anticipated over the next fiscal year, Clariter wanted to add an additional security layer to complement its Microsoft Advanced Threat Protection and Exchange Online Protection deployment and safeguard users from malware. 

The solution: FileWall

As an early adopter of FileWall, Clariter has seen first-hand the malware protection potential of odix’s CDR-based security add-on for Exchange Online. FileWall has significantly decreased malware infiltration into Clariter’s secure systems, providing increased security and peace of mind.

According to Clariter Group IT Manager Lance Soller, “With our team spread out across multiple locations worldwide, we need to be able to securely share data and protect our team and assets from cyberattacks. With the FileWall add-on for Microsoft Exchange Online, we can do that and more. FileWall gives us unmatched malware protection and perfectly complements our Microsoft 365 deployment.”

Rather than trying to detect known malware and block a file for a user, FileWall uses its patented algorithm for eliminating malware embedded in files and provides a sanitized file for safe use. FileWall is an effective malware prevention solution against both known and unknown attacks and handles all incoming email traffic, including internal email.

Ideal for the Microsoft 365 ecosystem

FileWall perfectly complements existing Microsoft security deployment to provide enhanced email protection while utilizing the dynamic security features of Microsoft 365. Deployable with just a few clicks, FileWall was designed to allow admins easy access to a broad range of file and system controls. From blocking macros to enabling common data files and deep file inspection capabilities, Clariter configured FileWall to meet its needs and protect its users and data.

As Clariter grows its business and gains more employees, odix looks forward to providing comprehensive malware protection and email security to its users with FileWall for Exchange Online.
