Shield Ctrl

Description

Shield Ctrl is the administrative control side of Shield, built directly into the product interface. It allows Shield Admins to manage organizations, adjust risk levels, add or remove products, and easily respond to users' requests to verify whether an email is safe.

Ctrl Pages

There are three distinct Ctrl pages. The first is the landing page for selecting the organization you wish to administer or for viewing partner organization mail flow via Spotlight. The second page is the partner's organization page. The third is the customer organization page for performing actions on a specific customer.
