Designing an email header analysis tool for cyber threat intelligence.

Abstract

This research proposes a design for an analysis of email headers as a way of obtaining cyber threat intelligence. The aim is to enable organizations to detect and prevent cyber-attacks more effectively by analysing the email headers of incoming messages. The analysis is conducted using the information found in the e-mail header. The proposed design incorporates an automated system that analyses the email headers and provides insights into the source, hop IP information, and security header details. Overall, the proposed email header analysis system has the potential to improve the cyber security posture of organizations and enhance their ability to respond to cyber threats.
