Abstract
A system for identifying email messages associated with phishing threats accesses an email message sent to a receiving computing device, where the email message is associated with a sender's email address. The system determines whether the sender's email address is associated with a token from a plurality of tokens stored in a token-email address mapping table. The system determines that the email message is associated with a phishing threat, in response to determining that the sender's email address is not associated with a token from a plurality of tokens from among a token-email mapping table.
