Can URL Protection function without enrolling End Users' Devices?

URL Protection can indeed function without enrolling end users' devices, which aligns with the chosen response. This capability operates independently of device enrollment, as it primarily relies on the email gateway's ability to scan and filter URLs contained in incoming emails before they reach the user's inbox.

The URL Protection feature analyzes the links in emails, checking for threats such as phishing attempts or malware while allowing safe links to pass through to the users. It can monitor and block malicious URLs in real-time, offering protection regardless of whether the devices themselves have been enrolled in a security management system.

In instances where URL Protection is effectively deployed at the email gateway level, it provides a robust layer of defense against malicious links by managing and controlling the security context of email content before it interacts with the end user's device. This independent functionality is what allows it to respond quickly to emerging threats without requiring direct integration with user devices.

Understanding this aspect highlights the importance of implementing security measures at various points within an organization, ensuring comprehensive coverage against potential threats.
