Varonis Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRNS) has announced the launch of Varonis Interceptor, a new email security solution designed to detect and block social-engineering attacks, even when they originate from trusted or compromised sources. The solution leverages multi-layered AI to combat AI-powered phishing campaigns and credential-stealing websites at machine speed.

Varonis Interceptor, which became available on October 8, 2025, is powered by the company's September acquisition of SlashNext. The new solution combines natural-language processing, computer vision, behavioral analysis, and a phishing sandbox to identify and neutralize threats in real time. Key features include multi-channel protection across email, Teams, Slack, and WhatsApp, automated policy-driven remediation, live threat intelligence, and an API-based deployment that takes five minutes and includes a historical look-back.

The product aims to stop breaches at the earliest point of attack—the inbox—and defend sensitive data against sophisticated social engineering attacks. Yaki Faitelson, co-founder and CEO of Varonis, stated, "Bad actors aren’t hacking computers, they’re hacking trust. Varonis Interceptor stops breaches at the earliest point of attack—the inbox."

Varonis Interceptor is designed to connect the dots between email, identity, and data, offering a complete and consolidated threat detection and response solution. The solution is available now and promises to enhance organizations' email security posture by detecting and mitigating threats that other solutions might miss.
