LEESBURG, Va., July 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Cofense™, the leading provider of human-driven phishing defense solutions worldwide, today announced the introduction of the industry's first Phishing-Specific Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) platform to help organizations identify and disrupt active phishing attacks in progress. The Phishing SOAR platform combines the power of improved Cofense Triage™ with a new product, Cofense Vision™ to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of phishing incident response efforts.
Recent news such as the ZeroFont exploit has demonstrated threat actors' abilities to easily stay ahead of next-generation email security technology. Additionally, the FBI just announced Business Email Compromise (BEC) losses are expected to total $12.5 billion by the end of 2018. While it's important for organizations to have a contextually-aware workforce of humans, security awareness alone isn't enough to combat today's top threats. By coupling human intuition with leading-edge technology, Cofense delivers an intelligence-fed Phishing SOAR platform designed to find and eliminate active phishing threats utilizing fewer resources – even if the attacks bypass perimeter defenses.
Orchestrate and Automate Your Phishing Defense
Cofense Triage enables security teams to quickly stop phishing attacks in progress. By leveraging real-time, internally reported attack intelligence from conditioned users, Incident Response and Security Operations teams can assess, analyze, and remediate active phishing threats. Recent enhancements to Cofense Triage help organizations to respond to threats faster and using fewer resources by eliminating abuse mailbox noise and speeding the automation of responses with playbooks and orchestration across additional security platforms:
Speed Response and Mitigation of Active Attacks
Regardless of how much is invested in "next-generation" technologies, malicious emails still make it past perimeter and endpoint defense technologies. Cofense Vision helps mitigate identified threats and potential impact by determining where else that email is lurking within your organization by storing, indexing, and enriching email messages for fast querying and quarantining before any damage occurs:
"Our research demonstrates that silver-bullet security technologies don't exist… It's not a question of when an organization will be phished, but rather how quickly and effectively can they respond to the threat," said Aaron Higbee, co-founder and CTO of Cofense. "Nearly a decade ago, PhishMe® created the phishing simulation market to improve employee resiliency against phishing. With our evolution into Cofense, we are proud to continue to lead this space by introducing Cofense Vision, the newest component of our Phishing-Specific Orchestration, Automation and Response platform, to uniquely mobilize phishing-aware humans to disrupt attacks."
Cofense will be demonstrating their new Phishing SOAR platform at the Black Hat 2018 conference, taking place in the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada on August 8-9, booth #936. Cofense Vision is expected to be available for customers in Q4 2018. To schedule a demo of Cofense Vision or Cofense Triage, please sign up at https://cofense.com/triage-soar-release.
