Streamline Email Security Setup with INKY’s Client Install Process

Setting up email security for multiple teams or clients can feel like a daunting task, especially for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), or large organizations. Fortunately, INKY’s client install process makes this a breeze by leveraging global settings and an intuitive inheritance system. In this blog post, we’ll explore how INKY saves you time and simplifies deployment, letting you focus on what matters most—keeping your organization secure.

Why INKY’s Setup Shines

INKY’s email security platform is designed with efficiency in mind. Its organization management feature allows you to group teams or sub-organizations under a single parent hierarchy, with settings that cascade effortlessly from global policies to individual teams. This streamlined approach eliminates repetitive tasks and ensures consistency across your environment. Let’s dive into the key benefits of INKY’s client install process.

1. Time Savings with Global Settings Inheritance

One of INKY’s standout features is its global settings template, which serves as the foundation for all teams within an organization. When you configure settings at the organization level—marked by the handy building icon in the INKY Dashboard—these settings automatically apply to all descendant teams. For example, enabling features like link rewriting or message transformations at the global level ensures every team inherits these protections without manual configuration.

This top-down inheritance drastically reduces setup time. Instead of configuring each team individually, you can define a single policy that propagates across your hierarchy. According to the INKY documentation, a single change at the organization level can impact hundreds of descendant teams, saving hours of repetitive work. For MSPs managing multiple clients or enterprises with numerous departments, this is a game-changer.

2. Ease of Use with Intuitive Controls

INKY’s user-friendly interface makes managing global settings a snap. When you select an organization in the dashboard, you’ll notice inheritance icons (like the globe for INKY’s default policy or the building for organization-level overrides) that clearly indicate where settings originate. This transparency ensures you always know which policies are in effect.

Worried about applying changes too broadly? INKY has you covered with a popup warning that alerts you when saving organization-level settings, confirming that updates will apply to all teams in the hierarchy. This thoughtful design prevents accidental misconfigurations while keeping the process straightforward.

3. Flexibility Without Complexity

While global settings streamline deployment, INKY also offers flexibility to customize policies at the team level when needed. If a specific team requires unique settings, you can override the inherited policy—marked by the person icon—without affecting the rest of the organization. The system prioritizes lower-level settings, so team-specific changes take precedence over global or organization policies. This balance of centralized control and localized customization makes INKY adaptable to diverse needs without adding complexity.

4. Seamless Client Onboarding

For MSPs and MSSPs, onboarding new clients is a breeze with INKY’s global settings. Once you establish a base template under your parent organization, new teams inherit these settings automatically. Whether you’re managing a handful of clients or hundreds, this plug-and-play approach minimizes setup time and ensures consistent security policies across your portfolio. Plus, INKY’s integration with platforms like Microsoft Office 365 means you can deploy quickly without disrupting existing workflows.

The Bottom Line

INKY’s client installation process is a masterclass in simplicity and efficiency. By leveraging global settings and a smart inheritance system, INKY saves you time, reduces configuration errors, and makes email security setup effortless. Whether you’re an MSP onboarding many clients or an enterprise managing multiple teams, INKY’s intuitive dashboard, clear inheritance indicators, and flexible overrides ensure you can deploy robust protection with minimal effort.
