SpyCloud, known for its unique anti-fraud platform powering account takeover prevention and fraud investigations solutions, launched SpyCloud VIP Guardian to extend the power of workplace fraud and account takeover prevention to the personal accounts of critical employees, board members and investors.
While enterprises can monitor corporate accounts and credentials for breach exposure, personal accounts tend to fall outside of their protection. SpyCloud VIP Guardian fills that gap by empowering critical employees to secure their own online identities using enterprise-grade tools, without exposing private data to their organizations. When employees’ personal credentials are exposed to criminals in a new data breach, they are alerted so they can reset compromised passwords quickly and prevent account takeover and online fraud before it happens.
“Most people don’t realize just how often their passwords end up in the hands of criminals or how those passwords can be used to access other accounts that they think are safe,” said Chip Witt, Vice President of Product Management at SpyCloud. “With SpyCloud VIP Guardian, we are extending our world-class account takeover prevention platform to personal accounts to protect important data on every front.”
SpyCloud VIP Guardian empowers business security leaders to:
- Extend the value of SpyCloud enterprise subscriptions to executives’ personal email accounts/identities, which are prime targets for cybercriminals;
- Help executives, board members, and investors protect themselves from account takeover by giving them real-time visibility of their own data breach exposure;
- Close security gaps that fall outside of corporate control by enabling executives to secure vulnerable personal accounts that could put your enterprise at risk;
- Educate executives with sensitive access to corporate resources about the importance of strong password security.
The new solution allows companies to help protect executive accounts without compromising their privacy. Executives’ personal information such as email addresses, passwords or personally identifiable information are not accessible to the organization.
