Email <-> BMC Helix

AI-driven BMC Helix security incident creation from inbound emails with harmful attachments so security teams respond to threats the moment they arrive - before standard filters catch them.

When a potentially harmful email arrives - one carrying a shell script, an executable or another suspicious attachment - it may pass standard email filters undetected. By the time a security analyst spots it and manually raises an incident in BMC Helix, the threat has had time to spread or go uncontained. This integration pack monitors a designated inbox via IMAP for inbound emails with risky attachments. When a threat is detected, the IntelliPaaS AI Thinker node applies logic checks and generates a complete security incident in BMC Helix with the email subject, sender, recipients and full message details included. The incident is created automatically so the security team can begin investigation immediately with every relevant piece of context already in the ticket.
