Abstract

Techniques for detecting instances of external fraud by monitoring digital activities that are performed with accounts associated with an enterprise are disclosed. In one example, a threat detection platform determines the likelihood that an incoming email is indicative of external fraud based on the context and content of the incoming email. To understand the risk posed by an incoming email, the threat detection platform may seek to determine not only whether the sender normally communicates with the recipient, but also whether the topic is one normally discussed by the sender and recipient. In this way, the threat detection platform can establish whether the incoming email deviates from past emails exchanged between the sender and recipient.
