What computer vision capabilities does Mimecast use for advanced threat analysis?
Mimecast computer vision technology analyzes email attachments, embedded images, and visual content for hidden malicious elements that traditional scanning methods cannot detect. The system examines image-based phishing attempts, steganography attacks where malware hides within legitimate-looking images, and QR code threats that redirect users to malicious websites. Computer vision algorithms detect subtle visual manipulations, logos designed to impersonate trusted brands, and suspicious image metadata that indicates potential threats. Our cross-platform security solutions extend visual threat detection across multiple communication channels.
