Protect Against User Account Attacks with SOC Solutions and Services

Disrupt user account attacks across your domain – endpoint, email user credentials and cloud apps

As cyber defender teams add additional security technologies beyond the endpoint to detect attacks against user accounts, the additional volume of alerts (many still being false positives!) creates an exponential burden on these teams to investigate each and every alert. Even missing one successful credential attack can lead to data compromise.

Further compounding this problem, adversaries have multiple attack vectors to steal, harvest, and misuse user account credentials which severely limit how endpoint-oriented response actions can fully disrupt an active misuse of a stolen user credential across authentication sources and cloud applications.
