This data is leaking out of existing email gateways and being used to fuel increasingly successful and specific spear-phishing and other cyber attacks.CodeBreaker - Think of simple external warning messages in emails, CodeBreaker offers a smart version of these using machine learning/AI so the warnings only show up in messages when there is something risky. These warnings help employees easily spot and thwart spear-phishing, impersonation and other identity attacks that are getting through current email gateways.GateKeeper (DLP) - Help employees easily identify misaddressed emails and protect confidential data leaks as a result of including the wrong recipient on an outbound email.
