The problem it solves

Every suspicious email that lands in a shared inbox needs someone to investigate it before you know if it's dangerous. Doing that manually is slow, inconsistent, and easy to fall behind on when volume spikes.

Who it fits

IT or security teams responsible for monitoring and triaging email threats.

How it works

  1. A new email arrives in the monitored inbox
  2. The system checks it against threat intelligence tools
  3. Findings are logged automatically
  4. Flagged emails are held for team follow-up
What you get

Suspicious emails checked before they cause harm

You get every suspicious email automatically checked against threat intelligence so your security team can act fast.

What you get

A logged threat analysis for each suspicious email received.

What you need

An email inbox with IMAP access and a TheHive/Cortex security platform account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
