Identify and remediate the identity exposures attackers use for initial access before ransomware.
Walk through identifying and remediating the identity exposures ransomware operators use for initial access.
Ransomware Prevention Demo by SpyCloud
SpyCloud recaptures the session cookies, authentication tokens, MFA codes, and credentials that ransomware operators and access brokers buy for their first foothold, matches them to your workforce, and remediates them before that access gets used. Because SpyCloud pulls this from the criminal underground rather than public sources, the exposure surfaces while it is still an entry point, not an incident.
This demo follows the path an operator would take: the infected device, the credentials it leaked, the employee behind them, and the automated reset and session revocation that closes the opening.
SpyCloud's ransomware prevention closes the identity exposures that ransomware operators and initial access brokers use for entry, so a stolen credential or hijacked session never becomes a foothold.
SpyCloud pulls session cookies, authentication tokens, MFA codes, and credentials.
SpyCloud ties each exposure to the employee, contractor, or device behind it.
Your policy resets the credential and kills the session without an analyst in the loop.
Automatic review as new recaptured data lands, continuously and without gaps.
SpyCloud ties each exposure to the employee, contractor, or device behind it.
What the data behind this demo shows
of ransomware entry points were phishing, up from 25%
Operators rarely break in. They use an exposed session, token, or credential that was already for sale. Remove that access first and the intrusion never gets its foothold.
Recaptured from the criminal underground
Credential reset, session revoked
The outcome you never reach
Where the intrusion would begin
Reset the credential and revoke the session, and the chain ends at step one.
See how SpyCloud removes the identity exposures ransomware operators
rely on for initial access.
It shows how SpyCloud identifies the exposed credentials and malware-infected identities an attacker could use for initial access, prioritizes them, and remediates them before they can be used to launch ransomware.
Most ransomware intrusions begin with a valid credential or session an operator obtained from the criminal underground. By recapturing that data and remediating the exposure first, SpyCloud removes the initial access an operator would rely on, addressing the cause rather than the payload.
Resetting a password invalidates that credential, but if malware also stole an active session cookie, an attacker can reuse the session to get in without the password and without triggering MFA. Closing the entry point requires both resetting the credential and terminating the exposed session, which is why SpyCloud remediates at the session level as well.
EDR and backups help you detect and recover once an intrusion is underway. SpyCloud works earlier, removing the exposed credentials and sessions an operator would use to get in, so it reduces the chance you ever reach the detection-and-recovery stage.
SpyCloud prioritizes the exposed credentials and malware-infected identities most likely to provide initial access, so your team acts on the handful of exposures that actually open the door rather than triaging everything at once.
