SlashNext introduced a groundbreaking service, SlashNext Gen AI for Spam and Graymail, this week. This service is the first of its kind to use a generative AI large language model (LLM) for detecting and filtering spam and graymail. It delivers unparalleled accuracy and precision with near-zero false positive rates, which significantly enhances user productivity and security operations center (SOC) efficiency. Key features and benefits are listed below.
Key Features and Benefits
Enhanced Accuracy and Precision
SlashNext GenAI for Spam and Graymail employs a unique set of AI classifiers that are specifically trained to identify various categories of spam and unwanted graymail, such as marketing ads, sales outreach, newsletters, and announcements. This AI-enhanced precision not only reduces the threats embedded in these types of emails but also dramatically decreases the volume of emails that users and SOC teams need to handle.
Productivity Gains
The service significantly boosts productivity by keeping user inboxes clean and free from spam and unsolicited emails. This cleanliness reduces the time users spend managing their inboxes and decreases the number of alerts and investigation requests that SOC teams need to process. SlashNext reports that this can save significant amounts of time for both users and SOC analysts, with specific ROIs viewable in the dashboard and reports.
Integration with Microsoft Defender for Office 365
Unlike other email security solutions that primarily use signatures and policies, SlashNext GenAI for Spam and Graymail integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Defender for Office 365. This integration provides a robust defense-in-depth strategy, enhancing the overall security posture of organizations using Microsoft’s email solutions.
Intuitive Executive Dashboard
The service includes an executive dashboard and summary report that allow chief information security officers (CISOs) and other executives to easily demonstrate the value of the SlashNext GenAI for Spam and Graymail. The dashboard provides clear insights into the productivity gains and security enhancements achieved, showcasing metrics such as “User Productivity Hours Saved” and “SOC Analysts Time Saved.”
Impact on Security and Productivity
The introduction of SlashNext GenAI for Spam and Graymail comes at a critical time. Since the launch of ChatGPT, SlashNext Threat Labs has observed a 1,265% increase in malicious phishing emails. The FBI’s recent IC3 report highlighted losses of over $2.9 billion from Business Email Compromise (BEC) in 2023. The availability of generative AI cybercrime tools like WormGPT, uncovered by SlashNext in July 2023, has enabled cybercriminals to launch sophisticated email-based attacks more quickly and in greater volumes than ever before.
By leveraging generative AI to combat these threats, SlashNext is not only addressing the increase in spam and graymail but also enhancing the productivity of individual users and SOC teams. This dual focus on security and productivity is particularly important as organizations continue to navigate the complex landscape of cyber threats amplified by advanced AI technologies.
Conclusion
SlashNext GenAI for Spam and Graymail represents a significant advancement in email security technology. By utilizing generative AI, SlashNext is setting new standards in the industry, offering solutions that not only protect against spam and graymail but also enhance organizational productivity. This innovative approach is a testament to SlashNext’s commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions that meet the evolving needs of modern enterprises in combating cyberthreats.
