CyberInt: Real-Time Online Protection

Being online is now essential for almost any company, be it a retailer, gaming company, or a financial institution. While being online allows companies to perk up their offerings and value proposition, they are often exposed to a battery of spurious agents that aim to target the business systems. Phishing scams, ransom ware attacks, and hijacked sub domains are just the tip of the iceberg—the kind of cyber threats that modern businesses are exposed to is astonishing. Amir Ofek, CEO of CyberInt shares a recent instance wherein an e-commerce fashion retailer was in a precarious situation. While the financial losses soared, the risk of voucher fraud was spiraling out of control. When Ofek’s CyberInt entered the scene, the company was quick to provide real-time monitoring capability to the retailer. The client leveraged CyberInt’s capabilities and subsequently restricted malicious activities, and created a secure online purchasing environment for its customers. Eventually, the client not only won back their customer’s trust but also started experiencing steady growth in its top line.

The key attribute of CyberInt’s client success stories is their unique engagement approach. The company assesses its client’s IT environment from a hacker’s perspective to perceive targeted threats and zero in on vulnerabilities. CyberInt’s integrated platform is built on the same methodology. One of its modules—Argos™ Threat Intelligence—leverages information from the dark web, social media, Internet Relay Chat (IRC), online forums, and other sources. The module contextualizes data to detect vulnerabilities, security threats, and discerns malicious activities in the client’s digital environment in real-time. After analyzing data, it provides actionable mitigation recommendations with contextual data and highlights threat actors targeting the business in real time.

CyberInt recognizes how the online world has evolved over the years and to this end it provides Argos™ Online Asset Protection which allows businesses to detect compromised online assets and respond in real time. Using this module, businesses can scan online assets, which include social media networks, web properties, blogs, DNS records, and IP Blacklists from one central location, for user behavior. The clients can mimic user behavior using browser sandboxing capabilities to prevent malicious activities such as website defacements.
