Using Artificial Intelligence to Catch Sneaky Images in Email

These days, email security is more critical than ever. With the rise of sophisticated cyber threats, attackers are constantly evolving their techniques to bypass traditional security measures. One such method is the use of image-based fraud, which can be particularly challenging to detect and prevent. Have you ever received an email from a service you don't remember signing up for? Or perhaps an email that seems legitimate but feels off? Information overload is a common tactic used by attackers to catch their victims off guard. As traditional security controls improve, threat actors pivot their techniques, often aiming to take transactions off the corporate monitored network. This has led to a rise in telephone-oriented attack delivery (TOAD) attacks and other types of image-based fraud. While this image may be clearly fraudulent to security analysts, it can be very challenging to stop using traditional methods like block rules or regular expressions. In this case, the email itself contained no actual text for traditional anti-spam technologies to spot. Despite the obvious red flags, such as brand abuse, these emails can slip through conventional defenses. At Cisco, we continue to innovate in the field of email security by leveraging Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models. These advanced technologies allow us to understand the intention behind messages and identify the true sender. Our approach goes beyond simple analysis to comprehend calls to action within the email content. Our data science team utilizes Optical Character Recognition (OCR) detection that leverages Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks for content extraction. Email security faces the additional challenge of scale, processing millions of images, URLs, files, QR codes and other objects. New methods of artificial intelligence enable us to use heuristics to determine which images are worth analyzing, processing, and interpreting signals and calls to action. This valuable data enhances our detection engines when assessing intent. Using data and artificial intelligence to determine attackers' intent and notice trends in popular evasions allows Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense to stop malicious actors. You can see these suspicious images and other signals flagged in Email Threat Defense by starting a free trial today.

Inside the incident: Uncovering an advanced phishing attack

This article is written by Varonis Security Specialist Tom Barnea. Think about your most recent security awareness training concerning phishing attacks. It likely included guidelines about avoiding clicking on suspicious links and exercises to identify subtle character differences, such as distinguishing between the letter "O" and a zero. Unfortunately, the time when even the most novice technology user could easily recognize a phishing email has ended. In the last few years, attackers have become more sophisticated and creative. Typo mistakes and grammar issues are no longer a concern for non-English-speaking threat actors, as the rapid evolution of AI has significantly contributed to the quality of these attacks. Recently, the Varonis Managed Data Detection and Response (MDDR) forensics team investigated a clever phishing campaign in which a malicious email enabled a threat actor to access the organization. This blog post will reveal the tactics the threat actor used to avoid detection and share the IoCs discovered during our investigation. A U.K.-based insurance customer faced a unique phishing attack. It began when a deletion rule created from a U.S. IP address was found in an executive manager's mailbox. This rule, named "a," permanently deleted emails containing a specific keyword in the email address. After the customer was alerted to the attack, the Varonis MDDR team identified the phishing email titled "ML Payment #05323" and its sender. We mapped out all email recipients, those who responded, those who reported it, and other communications with the threat actor's domain. This comprehensive spreadsheet was crucial for incident containment. Initially, our only indicators of compromise were the recipient's email address and the source IP of the deletion rule creation event, which turned out to be a general Microsoft IP and, therefore, not very useful in that case. However, the investigation took an interesting turn when we discovered that the phishing email appeared to come from a trusted sender: the CEO of a major international shipping company, who had previously communicated with our customer's employees. The threat actor probably compromised the CEO's email account, using it to damage more organizations. The specific keyword in the deletion rule was part of the sender's domain. It was designed to erase all emails to or from this domain, leaving no trace. The next step was to analyze the original EML file to understand the phishing methodology. The original phishing email was sent to 26 recipients in the organization. Instead of attaching a PDF file, the email included a link to a PDF hosted on an AWS server. The PDF appeared to be an official OneDrive message, indicating that the sender had shared a file. While a cybersecurity professional might identify the email as a phishing attempt, the high-quality message could easily deceive the average user. Interestingly, the PDF link contained the phrase "atoantibot." ATO stands for account takeover. At first glance, the link appeared to protect against ATO attacks, but the phishing attempt was ultimately the exact opposite. This bit of "hacker humor" will be revisited later in the article. To develop part of the attack, the threat actor used the public platform Render, a unified cloud platform that allows developers to build, deploy, and scale applications and websites easily. By leveraging a legitimate platform, the attacker ensured their malicious activities blended in seamlessly, making it difficult for email security systems to detect the threat. After clicking to "view the shared document," the user was redirected to "login.siffinance[.]com", a fake Microsoft authentication page. At this point, when the victim entered his credentials, the attacker achieved his goal. The user was then redirected to the official Microsoft Office site, making the incident seem like a glitch. Circling back to the "hacker humor" mentioned above, the attacker has disabled (or deactivated) the malicious domain, but if you try to access it today, it redirects to a popular internet prank known as Rickrolling. After entering credentials on the phishing page, the victim inexplicably responded to the attacker's email. However, because the customer could not retrieve the sent email, the content of the message is a mystery. Two minutes later, a successful login from a U.S. IP address (138.199.52[.]3) was detected, despite the victim being in the U.K. This "impossible travel" confirmed the attacker's access. Fortunately, our customer's security team acted swiftly, disabling the account, ending the session, and resetting the user's credentials within 30 minutes. The only action the attacker successfully achieved was creating a deletion rule. Our investigation revealed that this incident was part of a broader phishing campaign targeting multiple companies. The attacker employed several sophisticated tactics that made detection and investigation challenging: As is often the case in cybersecurity, the process begins and ends with users' security awareness. While it can be challenging for the average user to recognize sophisticated phishing emails, there are several best practices you can educate your users on to help them avoid falling into these traps: Below are a few technical steps that will help you protect against phishing and account take-over attacks: Varonis monitors real-time email and browsing activities and user and data activities, providing a comprehensive tool for cyber forensics investigations.

DreamHost email review

This review will focus primarily on how DreamHost functions as an email provider, however, and we're happy to confirm that DreamHost's email hosting services work really well. The main downside is that the cheapest shared hosting plan doesn't come with an email account included. You can purchase one as an add-on, but that still compares poorly against most other hosting providers. If you do sign up for DreamHost email though, you'll find a service that functions incredibly well. The platform is intuitive and offers good support, available through multiple channels. You can set up a professional account for your business, sync your messages between your mobile and desktop devices, and protect yourself against malware, spam, and phishing. The fact that DreamHost also lets you use its email hosting even if your domain is with another web hosting provider is another nice touch. It means users can access DreamHost's email features without the need to change their current hosting plan. DreamHost offers a single plan purely for email hosting on either monthly or annual contract terms. The monthly plan will set subscribers back $1.99 per mailbox per month and comes with 25GB of cloud storage per mailbox, ad-free webmail, and mobile and desktop syncing. The annual plan saves customers 16%, coming out at $1.67 per mailbox per month. It also comes with the same features provided by the monthly plan. Of course, you might only be looking for email hosting as part of a broader web hosting offering If that's the case, you may be disappointed to discover that DreamHost's cheapest offering, its Shared Starter plan, doesn't come with email hosting as standard. This plan costs $2.95 per month for a single website, but to add an email account, you'll need to pay an extra $1.67 per month for an add-on. Email is included with DreamHost's two other more expensive hosting plans, however, DreamPress and VPS. These plans cost $16.95 and $13.75 respectively and come with several other features, including functionality that may boost your employees' productivity, like an AI business advisor. The features that come with DreamHost's email hosting are impressive and should do more than simply let you give your business a more professional-sounding email address that would be available through a personal Gmail account. For example, customers are able to drag and drop messages between folders in webmail and set up automatic delivery filters to make the process of organizing messages much quicker. They can also route messages using custom aliases to further streamline the management of your messages. DreamHost's email interface is also worth mentioning. This is highly intuitive, so accessing all the common features that you'd expect from an email platform, including marking messages as read, spam, or simply deleting them is straightforward. And with the ubiquity of hybrid work meaning that employees are just as likely to respond to messages via their smartphone as their desk, DreamHost's promise to sync emails between devices is hugely important. You can also manage your storage via any device you choose as well. Although DreamHost may not offer telephone support, the assistance it provides via email and live chat are both reliable and effective, in our experience. The chat support is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, so you should always be able to get in contact with someone to assist you. DreamHost also has an extensive knowledge base if you'd rather take a stab at resolving your issue yourself. This is broken down by product so you'll find resources for shared hosting, WordPress, SQL databases, and the various other tools that DreamHost offers. Regarding its email hosting, specifically, the DreamHost knowledge base has guides on setting up your email account, configuration, backing up messages, troubleshooting, and more. There's also an email FAQ webpage for additional information. DreamHost boasts some strong security credentials, with all the company's pricing tiers coming with SSL certificates, firewalls, daily cloud backups, and domain privacy. The SSL certificates provide encryption for your web traffic and DreamHost's servers are monitored at all times to guard against cyberattacks.The antispam feature included for all email accounts is another welcome safeguard. It's something of a shame, however, that if customers want the most robust security from DreamHost, they'll have to pay for the privilege. This is because its malware removal tool, DreamShield Malware Remover, has to be purchased as an add-on for $29.99 per year or $3 a month. It would have been a bonus if DreamShield had been included with some of DreamHost's premium pricing tiers, but that doesn't take away from this platform's robust security posture. DreamHost is going up against some impressive names in the world of email hosting but holds its own. Although some, like IONOS, might represent a better choice for larger corporates that are more focused on web hosting than email, DreamHost delivers a reliable email service. It's also appreciated that DreamHost users can sign up for its email hosting even if their web domain is with a different platform. Interesting, when it comes to Google Workspace, it seems like DreamHost has decided that if you can't beat them, it's better to join them. This is because DreamHost offers a service where Google Workspace is provided in parallel. This option gives customer a stress-free way of connecting their domain with Google Workspace, with DreamHost taking care of the set-up. Customers will be put on a single payment plan for DreamHost hosting plans, domains, and Google Workspace so they have streamline billing for receiving all these services. Purely as an email provider, DreamHost is a decent option for businesses. It boasts good security and support and all the core features you'd expect are included. It's disappointing that there's no email with its cheapest hosting plan and malware removal costs extra, but the close Google Workspace integration is an interesting addition. There's plenty to praise here.

Bolster Unveils AI Security for Email: A Game-Changing Defense Against Phishing and Impersonation Scams

New Feature Combines Crowdsourced Customer Reports and AI-Driven Automation to Protect Brands from Fraud Schemes in Real Time SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- To help organizations fight the sharp rise in AI-backed phishing and impersonation attempts, Bolster, a leader in multi-channel phishing protection, today released a new feature, Bolster AI Security for Email, which automates the analysis and mitigation of cyber threats reported through customer abuse mailboxes. "Manual triage and processing by Tier-1 and Tier-2 security operations center (SOC) analysts is time-consuming and wildly costly for organizations. These cybersecurity inadequacies have substantial impacts on security teams, and importantly, on the customer experience," said Alain Mayer, VP of Product at Bolster. "This can result in significant customer churn and financial losses. We are empowering organizations to avoid these challenges by providing AI tools that are efficient, and automate the fight against phishing scams, impersonation and other fraud schemes." Large brands and enterprises are facing a flood of phishing, impersonation, and scam attempts, with some brands receiving upwards of 30,000 emails per month from customers reporting suspicious activity. For SOC personnel, handling these reports manually is inefficient and requires specialized knowledge. Additionally, manual processes can take, on average, days to weeks for each individual takedown, with impacts felt by multiple departments including Customer Support, Cybersecurity, Fraud Protection, Legal, Marketing, and more. Bolster AI Security for Email handles the entire lifecycle of a threat, from identifying domain registrants to sending cease-and-desist letters and coordinating global takedowns. During beta, the Bolster team identified a high true positive accuracy, with large brands seeing ~35% true positive rate, meaning about 1 in 3 reports of threat are legitimate. This helps organizations to focus resources on real issues, while also reducing internal costs. A recent study has shown that 15% of scammed users do not renew their licenses. AI-driven remediation can help to prevent this. "This new feature doesn't just stop phishing threats -- it protects your customers' trust. By enabling direct customer generated reporting and automating rapid threat mitigation, brands can demonstrate an active commitment to security," continued Mayer. "This goes beyond employee-driven models by directly engaging those who are most affected. While other tools focus on AI-driven analysis with human oversight, Bolster AI Security for Email fully automates the entire process, from triage to communication with customers, once a threat is neutralized." Additionally, AI Security for Email scales effortlessly, so SOC teams can manage tens of thousands of customer-reported emails monthly without requiring additional internal resources. This means that takedowns that used to take 1-2 days can now happen in just a few hours, preventing damage before it escalates.
