Undetected invoice and payment fraud can have expensive consequences

Your Accounts Payable department is a priority target for many attackers due to the financial power they hold.

Attackers will often send random invoices through in the hope they'll be paid without second thought, but more frequently they'll socially engineer the victim to make the phish seem legitimate.

Unfortunately, they’re often successful.

Analyze email content for fraudulent payment requests

  • 2 Urgent and financially motivated language. Egress Defend uses natural language processing (NLP) to analyze the content in the email body. Not only is the language financial in nature, but a sense of urgency is added in stating the account is overdue. These, combined with language indicative of repercussions, suggests financial phishing.
  • 3 URL analysis. The URL itself could be malicious or it can be a legitimate link redirected on-click. Egress Defend performs link analysis, both at the time of receipt and at the time of click, through link re-writing and protects from delayed, post-delivery weaponization.
