INDUSTRY: STATE & LOCAL GOVERNMENT

Protect the Systems Your Agency and Citizens Rely On

Identity data is scattered across every department and vendor you work with, and stolen credentials or session cookies are how attackers take advantage. SpyCloud recaptures that data from the criminal underground first, so nothing slips through unmanaged.

Built for the risks state and local agencies face

Lean teams, dozens of disparate departments, and residents who expect their data to stay safe – SpyCloud’s 1+ trillion recaptured identity data repository helps you cover and protect it all.

Uncover exposed access

See exactly which identity data and session cookies are exposed, so your team can verify and act immediately.

Remediate in minutes, not months

FAQs

How does SpyCloud help prevent benefits fraud and identity theft?

Attackers use citizen PII exposed in breaches and phishing campaigns to file fraudulent unemployment claims, benefits applications, and tax returns. SpyCloud recaptures that exposed data first, so agencies can flag at-risk accounts and stop fraud before it drains public funds.

Can SpyCloud monitor risk from vendors and contractors we don't directly control?

Yes. Vendors, contractors, and other third parties with system access are potential entry points that fall outside an agency’s own security tools. SpyCloud monitors for exposed credentials tied to those external accounts, so a compromised vendor doesn’t become the agency’s breach.

Does SpyCloud add to the workload of a small security team?

No. Detection and remediation are automated, so a lean team can maintain visibility across every department without manually reviewing each one. Exposures are flagged and resets are handled directly through existing directory services.

Does SpyCloud help agencies meet NIST SP 800-63B compliance?

Yes. NIST SP 800-63B requires agencies to check user passwords against known compromised credential lists. SpyCloud maintains 1+ trillion recaptured credentials, session cookies, and other identity assets, and integrates directly with directory services to flag and reset exposed passwords automatically.

How is SpyCloud different from general dark web monitoring tools?

Basic monitoring tools send an alert when an agency’s name or domain appears in a breach. SpyCloud recaptures the actual stolen data, including plaintext passwords and session cookies, tied to specific employee, contractor, or citizen accounts, so security teams know exactly which accounts to act on.
