INDUSTRY: CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Secure Society's Most Vital Systems Against Identity Threats

Communities rely on critical infrastructure for everyday needs – energy, communications, transportation, and more. The workforce and vendors who keep those systems running need secure access. A single exposed identity is enough to put them at risk.

Every access point is a potential way in

Security controls around infrastructure have improved, but access remains widely distributed – across identities (human and non-human), devices, and third parties. That’s where attackers focus, using exposed identity data to get in through legitimate access paths instead of breaking through defenses.

Uncover exposed workforce identities

Continuously monitor employee and contractor identities against recaptured darknet data, then automatically reset passwords and revoke sessions within your existing identity infrastructure.

Extend visibility to vendors and contractors

Third parties with system access fall outside your own security tools. SpyCloud delivers insights on exactly what’s exposed, how they were exposed, and when it happened – not just a risk score.

Remediate without adding downtime

Automated password resets and session revocation happen within your existing identity infrastructure – often within minutes of detection.

Extend coverage to every identity, managed or not

Detect infections on managed and unmanaged endpoints – including remote contractor devices – before attackers escalate.

Why critical infrastructure organizations choose SpyCloud

From ransomware to vendor compromise to insider risk, identity-based attacks put operations and safety at stake. SpyCloud helps you stop them before they reach OT.

ATO
Prevention

Catch compromised employee and contractor credentials before attackers can use them to access critical systems.

Ransomware Prevention

Identify stolen credentials and session cookies ransomware operators use for initial access, then shut down the attack path before encryption.

Supply Chain Exposure Management

Monitor vendors, contractors, and other third parties with system access, so a compromised partner doesn’t become your incident.

Session Hijacking Prevention

Spot session cookies stolen by attackers to bypass authentication and impersonate legitimate users, then invalidate those sessions before they’re exploited.

Zero Trust Exposure Monitoring

See identity exposures before granting access between IT and OT, so trust is based on current real-time insights, not assumption.

Insider Risk
Analysis

Surface patterns like credential reuse or other risky behavior that could signal negligent or malicious insider activity.

Investigation Speed & Attribution

Correlate identity data across infections, successful phishes, and breaches to trace access paths, with AI Insights cutting investigation time from days to hours.

We are a chemical company, not a cybersecurity company. SpyCloud watches multiple areas of the dark web for us, gathers exposed credential data we never had access to before, and presents it in a simple way we can share with associates and corporate leaders.

FAQs

How does SpyCloud apply to operational (OT) environments?

SpyCloud doesn’t monitor OT systems directly. It monitors the exposed identities – employee, contractor, and vendor credentials and sessions – that provide access into those systems, so exposure is caught at the identity layer even when the operational system itself can’t run security tools.

Will using SpyCloud impact uptime or operations?

No. Remediation is automated and based on confirmed exposure, not a blanket action across every account. That targeted approach avoids the broad resets or access changes that could disrupt operational systems.

Can SpyCloud help prevent ransomware attacks?

Yes. Most ransomware attacks begin with stolen credentials or hijacked session cookies that grant initial access. SpyCloud identifies those exposures early and removes the access path before ransomware operators can use it.

Does SpyCloud cover vendors, contractors, and other third parties with system access?

Yes. Third parties often fall outside an organization’s own security tools. SpyCloud monitors for exposed credentials or session tokens tied to vendor and contractor accounts, so a compromised third party doesn’t become an entry point into your systems.

How is SpyCloud different from other monitoring tools?

Most monitoring tools send an alert when exposure is detected. SpyCloud goes further, delivering the actual exposed credentials and session data, and automating remediation, so security teams get action, not just visibility.
