Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Cofense Managed PDR has been used at our headquarters as a way to combat the growing cyber threats that are phishing. We started using the solution with the trial version and then it was purchased. The solution's artificial intelligence is very good, at Pishing Defense Center we manage the entire process of detecting and automatically responding to phishing attacks in configured emails. When triggering an alert, the software has already corrected the threat, eliminating or quarantining it, and after that, it records the occurrence in a log so that it is possible to analyze the incidents that have occurred. After using this solution, the phishing issues were resolved.
