Armorblox applies cutting-edge AI techniques to solving today’s biggest challenge for information security: preventing attacks that occur across employee communications – including socially engineered Business Email Compromise (BEC) scams, email phishing, accidental data disclosures, and insider threats. These attacks bypass traditional solutions, like defense in depth, email security, anti-phishing, and data loss prevention (DLP), because they cannot analyze the context and meaning within employee communications. With Armorblox, organizations gain visibility into sensitive information in email, messages, and documents, enabling them to detect, alert and protect against attacks that other security solutions miss.
