Monitor and handle emails in an Inbox folder and scan the URLs and attachments via VirusTotal. Report back via Slack and send email result.

Updated over 6 months ago

This Torq workflow template helps safeguard businesses by monitoring mailbox folders for phishing threats. Once an IMAP trigger detects new emails in a specific folder, the workflow extracts URLs and attachments, analyzing them with VirusTotal. Results indicating whether content is safe or potentially malicious are then communicated via email and a designated Slack channel. This proactive approach ensures early threat detection, keeping organizational communication channels secure.
