Email Analysis Tool
A Microsoft Outlook Add-in tool that allows user to perform user sanitisation check on emails
The Email Analysis Tool is designed to integrate seamlessly with Microsoft Outlook via a custom add-in. The tool allows users to analyze suspicious emails with a single click before interacting with or reporting them as phishing. The tool extracts key details such as the sender domain, subject, body content, embedded URLs, and email authentication headers.
These details are sent to a backend system that performs a three-layered analysis — Content, Link, and Header Analysis . The backend uses a hybrid machine learning model powered by BERT, combined with reputation checks from VirusTotal and WHOIS, and authentication validation using SPF, DKIM, and DMARC headers.
In addition to the primary detection model, the tool offers an alternative analysis option using the Perplexity AI API, providing a second opinion powered by advanced language understanding along with a concise explanation of the email classification.
The results are displayed directly in the Outlook task pane for real-time analysis, giving users clear insights into the email's classification, link safety, and authentication status. This enables users to make informed decisions and quickly determine if an email poses a potential threat.
