Mimecast announced the Mimecast CyberGraph solution, a new add-on for Mimecast Secure Email Gateway that is engineered to use Artificial Intelligence to help detect sophisticated phishing and impersonation attacks.
"Phishing and impersonation attacks are getting more sophisticated, personalized and harder to stop. If not prevented, these attacks can have devastating results for an enterprise organization," said Josh Douglas, VP, Product Management for Threat Intelligence at Mimecast.
"Security controls need to be constantly updated and improved to outsmart threat actors. CyberGraph leverages our AI and machine learning technologies to help keep employees one step ahead with real-time warnings, directly at the point of risk. What makes this exciting is that we are embedding the technology for existing email security customers, they do not need to look for other vendors to fill the gap with technologies that only work to solve part of this challenge."
"The State of Email Security Report" found that email threats rose by 64% and employees are clicking on three times as many malicious emails as they had before the COVID-19 pandemic.
CyberGraph is built to blocks this communication, mask the email recipient's location, and prevents attempts to understand engagement levels with the email content.
Uses machine learning to protect from targeted email threats - CyberGraph is designed to create an identity graph by learning about relationships and connections between all senders and recipients.
