Abstract

Systems and methods for detecting a phishing attack in an email message. The method includes intercepting and evaluating an email, and generating a reputation score based on the evaluation of the email message. If the malicious component is detected, the email is blocked, if not, a trust score is generated. A determination is made whether the email is generated by AI, based on LLM. A certainty score is generated which is indicative of intentions and context of the email message being malicious. When the certainty score is higher than a threshold, a combined score by combining the reputation score, the trust score, and the certainty score. When the combined reputation score is higher than a threshold, the email is blocked, and if lower, a summary is generated by a summary AI engine. Based on a comparison with known malware summaries, the email is flagged or blocked.
