GC Solar and SEG-T Launch Development of AI-Powered Security Email Gateway SEG-T to Counter Advanced Phishing Campaigns

GC Solar and co-founder of Secure-T Khariton Nikishkin have initiated the development of SEG-T, a new Security Email Gateway solution designed to protect corporate email systems using multi-agent AI. The project responds to the growing sophistication of phishing attacks that leverage ready-made toolkits, infrastructure, anti-bot mechanisms, and AI-generated content to create convincing messages at scale. Unlike traditional filters, SEG-T will analyze both technical indicators and semantic elements such as tone, manipulation tactics, attempts to build trust, instill fear, or create urgency. The system will block suspicious attachments including links, archives, PDFs, executables, and SVGs while focusing primarily on social engineering rather than relying on a built-in sandbox. SEG-T is planned for deployment across cloud, on-premises, and Kubernetes environments with rapid 15-minute setup times and will integrate with Solar webProxy and Solar Dozor for enhanced traffic inspection and data loss prevention. GC Solar holds a 49% stake in the project following its earlier acquisition of a controlling interest in Secure-T.

GC Solar and SEG-T have announced the launch of a new Security Email Gateway solution aimed at strengthening corporate email protection through advanced multi-agent AI filtering. The initiative is led by co-founder of Secure-T, Khariton Nikishkin, with support from GC Solar, and directly addresses the rapid growth of sophisticated phishing campaigns that increasingly rely on pre-built toolkits and artificial intelligence.

Modern phishing operations now combine ready-made components such as management panels, distribution infrastructure, anti-bot mechanisms, and one-time code interception modules. Attackers further enhance these campaigns by using AI to generate more convincing messages and scale their reach. SEG-T is being developed to go beyond conventional technical analysis by evaluating the semantic content of emails, including tone, signs of psychological manipulation, attempts to establish trust, create fear, or pressure recipients into immediate action.

The gateway will automatically block messages containing potentially dangerous elements such as links, archives, PDF files, executable files, SVG images, and other attachments that could carry malicious content. Developers have decided against including a built-in sandbox, arguing that the majority of current attacks rely on social engineering rather than malware code. However, the solution will allow integration with external sandboxes for high-risk attachments when needed.

SEG-T is designed to work seamlessly with other GC Solar products, including Solar webProxy for traffic inspection and Solar Dozor for monitoring the transmission of sensitive personal data such as INN, SNILS, passport details, and bank card numbers.

The platform will be available in multiple deployment models: cloud, on-premises networks, and Kubernetes environments. According to the developers, initial setup and commissioning of SEG-T should take approximately 15 minutes. GC Solar owns 49% of the project and previously increased its stake in Secure-T to a controlling interest. The new product continues the company’s strategic focus on defending against phishing, spam, malicious mailings, and targeted attacks on corporate email systems.
