Explanation

Microsoft Defender for Office 365 includes Safe Attachments, a feature that detonates email attachments in a sandbox environment before delivery. If an attachment is found to be malicious, it is blocked; if clean, it is forwarded to the recipient. Microsoft Defender Antivirus (B) is an endpoint AV solution on devices, not an email gateway. Defender for Identity (C) focuses on detecting threats against Active Directory identities. Defender for Endpoint (D) protects devices but does not scan inbound email attachments at the mail gateway level.
