Protect Your Inbox from BEC & Ransomware with RAPTOR AI Beyond-Endpoint Security

BLUF on RAPTOR AI for Cybersecurity Specialists

Hey there, Rocky the Raptor here, RPost's cybersecurity product evangelist. I’m here to speak about a BLUF (hint, not a cliff).

BLUF -- that’s military-speak for Bottom-Line-Up-Front, or basically: “Here’s the point, fast.”

So here it is: RAPTOR™ AI is an Advanced Man-in-the-Middle Attack Detector (plus, of course, a whole lot more!).

That’s it. That’s the simple need every company has if they want to prevent BEC, wire fraud, supplier fraud, ransomware, and data exfiltration.

RAPTOR AI helps you see what you can’t see today -- cybercriminal reconnaissance happening beyond your endpoints, in other people’s inboxes and devices, where your traditional tools have zero visibility.

If that’s enough for you, you can stop reading here.

But if you like a bit more detail (and some juicy cybersecurity jargon), buckle up!

The Challenge: BEC and the Clock

Two of the most important metrics for cybersecurity teams are:

  • MTTD (Mean Time to Detect) -- How long it takes to spot a threat.
  • MTTR (Mean Time to Respond) -- How long it takes to fix the issue once detected.

The faster you detect, and the faster you respond, the safer you are.

But here’s the harsh reality. With Business Email Compromise (BEC), by the time you detect it… it’s already too late!

How RAPTOR AI Changes the Game

Here’s how RAPTOR AI flips the script and turns reaction into preemption.

  1. Tagging & Tracking in Real-Time

RPost hooks into your outbound email flow -- no changes for senders or recipients.

When you send an email, RAPTOR AI invisibly tags it so every open, forward, and reply generates brand-new metadata.

This metadata is exclusive to RAPTOR AI -- it simply doesn’t exist without it. This lets RAPTOR AI see:

  • Who is viewing your messages
  • From where in the world
  • On what device or network

If a cybercriminal is lurking inside a compromised third-party inbox, RAPTOR AI knows -- before they strike.

  1. From Detection to Pre-Emption

Armed with this unique intel, RAPTOR AI alerts you to attacks before they happen.

That means:

  • MTTD = 0 (You detect the attack before it starts)
  • MTTR = 0 (You respond before the bad guys move)

This is what we at RPost call PRE-Crime™ -- stopping BEC before it ever materializes into stolen money or exposed data.

Think Minority Report, but with fewer Tom Cruise chase scenes and more secure wire transfers.

Jargon, Demystified (Rocky-Style)

Here’s some of the lingo you’ll hear around RAPTOR AI -- broken down for humans:

  • See the Unseen:

Your current tools stop at your endpoints. RAPTOR AI goes beyond, showing you what’s happening inside third-party systems, even if they’re compromised.

  • Un-Leaking Leaks:

If RAPTOR AI spots a cybercriminal opening one of your emails, it can automatically lock down sensitive attachments remotely. Boom -- leak neutralized. Poof…

  • Cabals:

Fancy word for organized cybercrime gangs like FIN11, APT28, or Black Axe.

RAPTOR AI’s models can attribute activity to specific cabals, giving you context on why they’re targeting you and what their next moves might be.

  • Double DLP™:

Your regular DLP protects inside your organization. RAPTOR AI adds a second, external layer -- catching misaddressed emails, impersonated mailboxes, and compromised recipients before the data escapes.

Why This Matters

Imagine this:

A supplier’s inbox is compromised.

A threat actor sits quietly, watching your real communications.

When a real invoice arrives, they pounce, sending a perfectly timed, perfectly worded fake.

Without RAPTOR AI, you don’t see it coming -- until your CFO is asking why $250,000 went to an account in Moscow.

With RAPTOR AI, you’re alerted before the fake email ever arrives. It’s like having a cyber-raptor guarding your herd.

Deployment & Flexibility

Enabling RAPTOR AI is easy:

  1. Flip a switch at your outbound mail gateway.
  2. If you need to turn it off, just flip it back.
  3. For testing, you can even try it with a few users via Outlook or our web app.

The Bottom Line

Cybercriminals don’t sleep.

Your defenses can’t either.

RAPTOR AI gives you:

  • Visibility beyond endpoints
  • Detection before compromise
  • The power to PRE-EMPT BEC and ransomware attacks

Or, in other words, it lets you see the unseen, stop leaks, and keep your organization safe from some of the most advanced cybercrime tactics out there.
