New AI tool helps workers detect malicious emails

IRONSCALES, an email security platform, has introduced a new generative AI tool called Themis Co-pilot for Microsoft Outlook to assist users in identifying suspicious emails. The tool uses OpenAI’s GPT models to provide chat assistance for self-service threat reporting. Themis Co-pilot aims to give all workers the ability to identify fake and malicious emails regardless of their role or security skills. Users can query suspicious emails with the AI, giving them real-time insights and allowing them to confidentially report threats. This contributes to the reduction of false positive rates users report, freeing up the valuable time of security teams. As the tool is used more frequently to report threats, it will use machine learning to automatically detect similar threats in the future. IRONSCALES’ research reveals that Business Email Compromise (BEC) and phishing attacks on individuals and organizations are on the rise. With Themis Co-pilot, IRONSCALES hopes to empower users to spot phishing attacks through a self-service threat reporting tool.
