Managed Phishing Detection and Response is a proactive cybersecurity service designed to help organizations identify and mitigate phishing threats in real time. Instead of relying solely on end users to spot suspicious emails, this service leverages automated tools, threat intelligence, and expert analysis to detect phishing attempts before they can cause harm. Suspicious messages are flagged and analyzed using a combination of machine learning, behavioral analysis, and sandboxing to determine if they are part of a phishing campaign. Known indicators of compromise (IOCs) such as malicious URLs, spoofed senders, and payload-laden attachments are used to assess the threat level and trigger the appropriate response.
Once a threat is confirmed, the managed service swiftly initiates containment actions, such as quarantining emails across inboxes, blocking sender domains, or revoking access tokens if credentials were compromised. Security analysts often provide detailed reports and user notifications to educate impacted users and prevent similar attacks. This approach minimizes dwell time, reduces the risk of data breaches, and enhances overall security posture—particularly for organizations without a dedicated in-house security team.
