Email security beyond isolated detection
Email remains a primary vector for malicious activity. Generative AI has significantly increased the sophistication and scale of phishing attacks, making traditional detection methods insufficient on their own.
AI-powered detection
LLMs, behavioral analytics, and user profiling analyze both the content and underlying intent of communications to identify sophisticated phishing attempts.
Cross-domain correlation
Cortex Extended Data Lake (XDL) correlates data from email, identity, endpoints, and the network for a complete attack path analysis.
Automated remediation
Removes malicious emails, disables compromised accounts, and isolates endpoints in real time through automated response workflows.
Current email security challenges
AI-generated phishing is more sophisticated than traditional attacks, while siloed security tools leave gaps in detection and response.
Phishing emails leverage GenAI
AI-generated messages lack traditional indicators such as grammatical errors, making detection more difficult.
Growth in phishing attacks
Phishing attack volume has increased over the last six months as AI lowers the barrier to execution.
Breaches involve social engineering
The majority of data breaches include social engineering as a component of the attack chain.
Average cost of a data breach
The financial impact of breaches continues to rise as attacks grow more targeted and persistent.
AI-generated phishing at scale
Generative AI enables attackers to produce hyper-personalized phishing emails at least 40% faster than manual methods, reaching thousands of targets with content tailored to each recipient.
Isolated detection leaves gaps
Point email security solutions analyze emails in isolation without broader context from endpoints, identities, or cloud applications, leaving organizations unable to see the full attack chain.
Key capabilities
The Advanced Email Security module runs on the Cortex platform, powered by the AI-ready data foundation of Cortex Extended Data Lake (XDL).
Understand intent
LLMs, behavioral analytics, and user profiling analyze both the content and underlying intent of communications to identify sophisticated phishing and impersonation attacks, including AI-generated phishing.
Expand investigation
Reduce detection and response times by correlating data from email, identity, and endpoints using the unified data foundation of Cortex XDL for a complete attack path analysis.
Respond automatically
Neutralize attacks through automated workflows that remove malicious emails, disable compromised accounts, and isolate endpoints in real time, reducing response times from hours to minutes.
How the module works
The Advanced Email Security module provides end-to-end visibility and automated remediation across multiple security domains.
Deep email analysis
Examines email metadata, content, and behavioral patterns to identify malicious intent and detect AI-generated phishing.
Cross-domain correlation
Connects email events with identity, endpoint, and network activity using the unified data within Cortex XDL.
Risk-based prioritization
Assigns risk scores to emails based on historical user activity and threat intelligence, reducing alert fatigue.
Automated response
Quarantines malicious emails, blocks compromised senders, and disables affected user accounts through automated workflows.
