Graymail is a time suck
Unlike phishing, graymail isn't inherently malicious. The intent of the message is good, but it floods inboxes and makes prioritizing difficult.
Graymail is also subjective. Different employees find different emails useful, which makes graymail hard to classify. Moreover, users often report graymail as phishing, draining administrative time and reducing productivity across the organization.
High-efficiency graymail detection
Egress' advanced graymail solution leverages Defend's patented AI-based phishing detection functionality, which uses zero trust models and neural networks to prevent behavioral-based threats. This enables Egress to intelligently classify graymail and move it to a dedicated folder before reaches the inbox.
As a result, Egress' graymail detection provides immediate time to value straight out of the box, without having to learn user behavior before it can add value.
Dedicated graymail folder
Applying this advanced detection methodology, Egress surfaces priority messages within the inbox, while reducing the noise in the inbox by segmenting graymail.
Messages detected as graymail are automatically put into the user’s _Graymail folder, where they are accessible for users to engage with them at the appropriate time.

An interactive banner is added to each message that is routed to the graymail folder, which provides a simple workflow for employees to re-categorize emails and divert them back into their mailbox. Users’ preferences are automatically learned by Defend, allowing users to customize their own experience without any management overhead
This avoids the potential for misclassification of legitimate email that comes with self-learning graymail detection systems while eliminating administrative overhead for graymail management.
