- Title: POST: Email Archival, Processing and Flagging Stack for Incident Responders
- Abstract summary: Phishing is one of the main points of compromise, with email security and awareness being estimated at $50-100B in 2022.
Post is an API driven serverless email archival, processing, and flagging workflow for both large and small organizations.
It allows full email searching on every aspect of an email, and provides a cost savings of up to 68.6%.

- Abstract: Phishing is one of the main points of compromise, with email security and awareness being estimated at \$50-100B in 2022. There is great need for email forensics capability to quickly search for malicious content. A novel solution POST is proposed. POST is an API driven serverless email archival, processing, and flagging workflow for both large and small organizations that collects and parses all email, flags emails using state of the art Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning, allows full email searching on every aspect of an email, and provides a cost savings of up to 68.6%.

Modern email filters, one of our few defence mechanisms against malicious emails, are often circumvented by sophisticated attackers.
This study focuses on how attackers exploit HTML and CSS in emails to conceal arbitrary content.
This concealed content remains undetected by the recipient, presenting a serious security risk.

Key Information Extraction (KIE) from documents improves efficiency, productivity, and security in many industrial scenarios.

We propose a deep end-to-end trainable network for one-shot KIE using partial graph matching.

The problem of detecting phishing emails through machine learning techniques has been discussed extensively in the literature.
In this paper, we crafted a set of phishing and legitimate emails with similar indicators in order to investigate whether these cues are captured or disregarded by email embeddings.
Our results show that using these indicators, email embeddings techniques is effective for classifying emails as phishing or legitimate.

In the era of deep learning, a user often leverages a third-party machine learning tool to train a deep neural network (DNN) classifier.
In an information embedding attack, an attacker is the provider of a malicious third-party machine learning tool.
In this work, we aim to design information embedding attacks that are verifiable and robust against popular post-processing methods.
