Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure relate to dynamic message analysis using machine learning. A computing platform may monitor a messaging server associated with an enterprise organization. Based on monitoring the messaging server, the computing platform may identify bi-directional messaging traffic between enterprise domains associated with the enterprise organization and external domains not associated with the enterprise organization. Based on identifying the bi-directional messaging traffic, the computing platform may select external domains for a conversation detection process. The computing platform may compute an initial set of rank-ordered external domains by: determining, based on a number of messages sent to and received from each enterprise domain/external domain pair, weighted difference values and ranking the plurality of external domains selected for the conversation detection process based the weighted difference values. The computing platform may remove, from the initial set of rank-ordered external domains, known outlier domains, and may execute enhanced protection actions.
