Mimecast has announced the Mimecast
CyberGraph solution , a new add-on for Mimecast Secure Email Gateway ( SEG ) that is engineered to use Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) to help detect sophisticated phishing and impersonation attacks .

The workplace is always the top target of cybercriminals , but in the remote working era , the problem has intensified .
CyberGraph includes three key capabilities engineered to help prevent cyberthreats :
• Renders embedded trackers useless
• Uses machine learning to protect from targeted email threats
