INDUSTRY: STATE, LOCAL GOV & LAW ENFORCEMENT

Safeguard Public Trust With Identity Threat Protection

Government and law enforcement systems hold sensitive and critical data, and aren’t immune to stolen credentials or session cookies. SpyCloud recaptures that data from the criminal underground – across malware infections, phishing attacks, and breaches – so your team can act on real exposure.

Secure identities across every system you run

Employees, contractors, and the public all touch your systems, and any one can be an entry point when their identity is exposed. SpyCloud gives you visibility across all of it.

Detect exposed identity data
Match users against 1+ trillion recaptured credentials, session cookies, and malware logs – spanning 200+ data types, including PII and financial data – to flag risk before compromise.
Automate remediation across your infrastructure

Reset exposed passwords and revoke compromised sessions to secure accounts within your existing IdP tools.

Stop session hijacking
Stolen session cookies let attackers bypass authentication and slip past MFA. Detect compromised sessions before they’re exploited.
Accelerate investigations and attribution

With SpyCloud’s AI Insights powered by IDLink, connect emails, aliases, credentials, and devices to build attribution chains, and leverage Research Agent to build comprehensive exposure reports – compressing weeks of work into hours.

TRUSTED BY HUNDREDS OF GLOBAL INDUSTRY LEADERS

State and local government and law enforcement face identity threats differently.

Explore the risks specific to your work.

State & Local Government

Attackers look for any way into the systems your agency and residents depend on.

Law Enforcement

A single exposed identity can put critical operations at risk.

Next steps

Identify exposed identities before they impact critical operations

Protect your workforce, safeguard citizen data, and disrupt identity-based cybercrime.

FAQs

Identity-based cybercrime uses stolen credentials, session cookies, and PII to impersonate legitimate users and bypass perimeter defenses. Government agencies are prime targets because they hold sensitive citizen data, operate lean security teams, and often have unmanaged contractor devices that endpoint tools can’t monitor.

Unlike a simple alert from darknet monitoring, SpyCloud recaptures the actual stolen data – including plaintext passwords, session cookies, and malware infection logs – and delivers it as structured, correlated intelligence you can act on inside your existing security and investigative tools.

Yes. Most ransomware attacks begin with stolen credentials or hijacked session cookies that grant initial access. SpyCloud identifies those exposures early, automates remediation, and disrupts the access path before ransomware operators can establish persistence.

SpyCloud’s IDLink technology correlates emails, usernames, passwords, devices, and aliases across more than 50,000 breach sources to build full attribution chains. Investigators access plaintext credentials (not hashes) and use AI Insights and pivot analysis to compress investigations from weeks to hours.

Yes. NIST SP 800-63B requires agencies to check user passwords against known compromised credential lists. SpyCloud maintains a recaptured credential dataset spanning billions of records across 50,000+ breach sources, and integrates directly with directory services to flag and reset exposed passwords automatically.

SpyCloud recaptures stolen data in near real time as it appears in the criminal underground. Most exposures are surfaced within days of the underlying breach or malware infection, typically months before they appear on public darknet sources.
