SpyCloud

““SpyCloud allows us to see where we are vulnerable in order for us to fortify those potential entry points,””

““Without the SpyCloud data, we would be in constant risk for attacks we never saw coming. We may not be able to stop every breach, but we feel we are being more proactive and have dramatically improved our security stance.””

““We don’t want to block an account if we don’t have to, so having such detailed and usable data from SpyCloud helps our security team be more discerning,” says Baillio.”

““The SpyCloud API automates the heavy lifting and data gathering for us,” says Baillio. “Our student employees integrate SOAR and SpyCloud so we can quickly react. Having the API documentation in Apiary clearly defined, allows our team and students who have limited security experience to build effective automations. We can’t get that with other platforms out there.””

““Before SpyCloud, if we were alerted to 7,000 exposed passwords to manually check, we would most likely have had to ignore them due to a lack of resources,” says Baillio. “With SpyCloud, we can get that information in less than 30 minutes. We passed that information along to our help desk and in a matter of hours, 1,000 accounts were secured. Using SpyCloud and the ingenuity of our student employees, we are legitimately preventing bad guys from compromising accounts.””

““We value SpyCloud because not only does it help solve ATO, it also gives our team more bandwidth and allows us to provide a better customer experience.””

““Since SpyCloud recaptures credentials directly from the criminal underground, we now have a level playing field with fraudsters – with the same data, we can easily identify compromised consumers and be more proactive in protecting them.””

““ Without the visibility SpyCloud provides, we would have been at a very big risk of compromise. ””

““That’s quite a powerful statement really, especially when there are a lot of options in different areas in the marketplace and sometimes budgets are difficult. SpyCloud seems to be one of the first that gets ticked off the list.””

““As a byproduct, SpyCloud has also given us a better score with our insurance companies. I remember six months ago being brought into a meeting with our cyber insurance providers and they told us that we were the lowest-risk company that they had seen. That’s due to the stack we’ve implemented, and obviously SpyCloud is part of that stack.””

““I’m not sure you can do much better than that.””

““GDPR is comprehensive, and CCPA follows a very similar ethos. Being prepared for GDPR and having our answers ready and that toolset that we use, which includes SpyCloud, puts us in a very good position to be able to address CCPA.””

““SpyCloud plays a part in helping us understand our security posture. We can say we’re Cyber Essentials Plus certified, we can discuss what processes we have in place with Active Directory Guardian to protect us in case a password is leaked. There’s a gap that SpyCloud’s Active Directory Guardian fills for us, and lots of people don’t have that addressed. We think that gives us a little bit of an edge on any queries that go down that particular path.””

““Even though we have other layers of protection, we still see password reuse. So we know that if it wasn’t for Active Directory Guardian, people’s behavior would put us into a position of weakness.””

““Capturing the issues before they become a problem is significant,””

““What SpyCloud’s Active Directory Guardian does for us is invaluable. To be able to search through billions of data points – it’s impossible for us to do. But Active Directory Guardian picks out issues instantly,””

“As you move to the right of any transaction and you start to get more proactive in fraud checks, you also start to get a lot more false positives. Having additional information related to a user beyond just an email helps us move beyond assumptions to have better insights on the validity of a transaction .”

“Not only were we able to focus on the high-risk transactions identified by SpyCloud, we also found that 4% of our users were infected with malware, which alerted the team to an increased need for investigation into their purchases, including customer outreach. Predicting fraud tied to malware is unique to SpyCloud, and the pilot surpassed our expectations and ultimately contributed to the final buying decision.”

“SpyCloud has helped me shave time off my investigations assignments. Investigations that might normally take up to 30 minutes to check, it now takes me only one or two minutes to get the insights I need from SpyCloud. And the data comes over clean so I can make a determination quickly.”

“Even if it takes 6 months to identify one person who is a real fraudster, if that leads to an arrest, that’s a win in our book. For that to happen you need external threat intelligence which includes SpyCloud data, and individuals and investigators need to understand the benefit of that threat data so they can engage with victim organizations and law enforcement. SpyCloud is a crucial piece of a multi-pronged approach for businesses in the financial services sector, not just from my organization’s perspective.”

“SpyCloud’s data set enriches our ability to threat-assess a given acquisition target.”

“SpyCloud is a reliable and credible intelligence source… it’s always a part of our process now.”

“I would need a bigger team without SpyCloud.”

““I sleep well at night knowing that I have SpyCloud.””

““Because of the collection capabilities [SpyCloud has], we can do more at a bigger scale.””
