FREE Phishing Detection Platform

Introduction

Phishing attacks have become one of the most common methods used by cybercriminals to infiltrate organizations and steal sensitive information. They are often carried out through emails, where attackers attempt to trick users into giving away their credentials or installing malware. The impact of such attacks can be devastating for an organization, leading to financial losses, damage to reputation, and legal liabilities. To combat this threat, SOCFortress has integrated Sublime into the SIEM stack to add a new feature to automate the detection and removal of phishing emails within your organization. In this post, we will discuss the benefits of this new feature and how it can help organizations to stay protected against phishing attacks.

Benefits of the New Feature:

The new feature added by SOCFortress automates the entire process of detecting and removing phishing emails within an organization. This process involves analyzing emails received by employees using advanced detection rules and YARA to identify phishing emails.

Detection Rules
YARA

Once identified, the emails are automatically removed from the employee’s inbox, preventing them from being opened and acted upon. The benefits of this new feature are:

  1. 🔐 Improved Security: By automating the detection and removal of phishing emails, the SOCFortress stack helps organizations with a more robust security posture against this common attack vector. This feature ensures that phishing emails are not opened and acted upon, reducing the risk of a successful phishing attack.
  2. 📈 Increased Efficiency: With this feature, employees no longer have to manually identify and report phishing emails, which can be a time-consuming process. This automation reduces the workload on employees, allowing them to focus on their core tasks.
  3. 💰 Cost Savings: Stop paying top dollar for commercial email security products. Integrate this open source solution without breaking the bank!
