New module proactively detects and mitigates phishing threats, helping customers protect brand integrity and prevent costly damage
HERZLIYA, Israel, April 28, 2025 – Cognyte Software Ltd. (NASDAQ: CGNT) (“Cognyte”), a global leader in software-driven technology for investigative analytics, today launched a powerful new phishing detection module as part of its LUMINAR external threat intelligence solution. This significant capability delivers additional value to customers, helping them to detect, assess and neutralize phishing threats before they impact brand integrity or operational security.
Phishing remains one of the most effective vectors for cyberattacks, brand impersonation and fraud. Unlike traditional solutions that react to phishing attacks after they occur, LUMINAR identifies and helps to mitigate threats before they escalate. Its advanced analytics analyze domain permutations, subdomains and infrastructure, providing a more accurate, real-time view of evolving cyber threats.
Key capabilities of the LUMINAR phishing module include:
- Automated Proactive Detection – Detects phishing attempts and domain impersonation before they become a threat.
- Automated Detection – Identifies and flags phishing attempts across millions of domains, subdomains, SSL certificates and domain permutations.
- Comprehensive Domain Intelligence – Provides deep investigative insights with automated technical analysis, including DNS records, WHOIS data, IP information, SSL certificates and hosting details.
- Risk Scoring for Prioritization – Delivers real-time threat level scores for clear visibility into the severity of the threat and guiding prioritization.
- Integrated Takedown Services – Streamlines response with built-in takedown capabilities to reduce exposure and reputational harm.
“As phishing attacks grow more sophisticated and damaging, organizations need smarter, faster tools to protect their digital footprint,” said Gilad Zahavi, VP of Threat Intelligence at Cognyte. “This new module enables security teams to move from reactive response to proactive threat mitigation, helping safeguard their brand and customer trust in an increasingly hostile online environment.”
The new module offers real-time detection of domain impersonation attempts, including Typosquatting, lookalike domains and suspicious infrastructure activity. By automating threat prioritization and integrating takedown capabilities, the module reduces manual overhead while dramatically accelerating time to resolution helping to minimize brand risk and potential financial loss.
