Tessian AI Explained

Through behavioral, content and threat network analysis, Tessian AI automatically adjusts as our customers hire, acquire, and adapt.

Behavioral Detection

Detects Anomalous Sender

The sender of this email appears to be a colleague, who the recipient has interacted with frequently in the past. However, deep content inspection tells us that the domain was registered in the past 24 hours and there is no prior communication history.

Behavioral Detection

Detects Anomalous Behavior

A common tactic in Financial Fraud attacks is to use urgency to trick the user into completing the request before they have a chance to realize something is phishy. Natural Language Processing detects this anomalous behavior by identifying terms that indicate urgency, financials, and calls to action.

Behavioral Detection

Detects Anomalous Attachment

Previous communication patterns indicate that it is unusual for the legitimate sender that the attacker is impersonating to attach supplier invoices when discussing payments.
