Darktrace / EMAIL secures email and collaboration by training exclusively on each organization’s own communication patterns, not shared threat intelligence. It builds a Unique Behavioral Profile for every user – spanning email, identity, DLP, and human risk – to catch novel phishing, business email compromise, and account takeover that signature-based tools miss by design. It’s recognized as a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant and in the 2025 Voice of the Customer for Email Security Platforms.
