To protect today's dynamic workforce, security teams must be equipped to discern when and how a trusted account has been leveraged for nefarious purposes. This requires more than just an understanding of 'good' vs 'bad' - it requires an 'immune system' approach to security that is not only adaptive, but also grounded...

Compromised Credentials Monitoring (CCM) allows users to monitor exposure of compromised credentials for their enterprise domains and customer email addresses to take action after breaches to mitigate risk of account takeover (ATO). Flashpoint's advanced technology quickly collects and processes data and credentials,...
The thriving cybercrime economy of vendors hawking illicit offerings on underground marketplaces grants access to resources that reduce barriers to entry for crimes ranging from fraud to DDoS attacks.
