How We’ve Mitigated Insider Threats
Our Insider Threat Intelligence Solution has helped organizations protect against internal data theft, cyber risks, and reputational harm.
Rooting Out Insiders Selling Access
On the first day of an investigation, our analysts identified the key threat actors – a third-party contractor insider and the dark web seller of the company’s credentials. We directly engaged with them via mis-attributable infrastructure to obtain additional information to help with threat mitigation. Within three days, we had unmasked the actors’ real identities and discovered how they perpetrated their scheme. We then worked closely with the company’s security team to enhance their security measures.
