What is Cofense Protect?

Cofense Protect is an advanced phishing protection solution designed to keep organizations safe from today’s sophisticated phishing attacks such as credential phishing and business email compromise (BEC) attacks. Cofense Protect visually analyzes and inspects content of emails, including URLs, their destination landing page, and attachments using Computer Vision and AI technology to stop phishing emails and websites in real-time - before they have been reported or added to deny lists.

The solution is informed by Cofense Intelligence and a network of 30M human sensors reporting phish through the Cofense Phishing Defense Center. Protect catches what SEGs miss, including multi-level attacks with redirects, phishing attachments with in-line HTML attachments, fraudulent images asking for login credentials, BEC, and new and unknown URLs which do not appear on deny lists.

Cofense Protect is a cloud-native, advanced phishing detection and email analysis technology. It is built to stop advanced attacks that circumvent basic detection mechanisms baked into the Microsoft O365 and Google Workspace offerings. Users benefit from the power of computer vision to detect in real-time the sophisticated attacks which elude SEGs globally today.

Computer Vision and AI

Cofense Protect uses our patent-pending technology to detect phishing attacks by visually analyzing and inspecting emails, URLs, landing pages, and attachments. Near instantaneous decisions are made on whether the email is likely malicious. Phishing attacks are detected as they arrive and are moved away from the user’s inbox. Protect deactivates the malicious links so they are no longer a threat to users, unlike other solutions which apply a “suspicious” banner but leave the links intact.

Integration with the Security Environment

Cofense Protect offers custom mitigation for the organization through configurable rules for incident management control. API integrations inform SOC and SIEM tools, giving the user greater visibility into phishing defense.

Security Health Management

Cofense Protect’s automated reporting provides details on malicious attacks against your organization:
  • Gain insight into aggregate data including the number of emails and URLs scanned, and phishing attacks detected
  • See the top detected phishing brands and top users targeted
  • Classify and organize emails into specific categories
  • View the details of any email deemed malicious in a safe sandbox
