Why Integrate Threat Intelligence Feeds into Email Security?

This KnowBe4 whitepaper explains how AI-driven phishing is making email threats more convincing and argues for integrating real-time threat intelligence, user behavior insights, and adaptive controls into email security. It highlights four benefits—proactive detection, faster response, improved detection accuracy, and reduced operational burden—provides criteria for evaluating threat-intelligence-enabled email security, and describes KnowBe4 solutions (Cloud Email Security, PhishER Plus, AIDA Agents) that apply these concepts to reduce phishing risk and manage emerging AI-related threats.
