PRODUCT: CYBERCRIME INVESTIGATIONS
UNCOVER THE ACTORS BEHIND CYBERCRIME FASTER
Investigate cybercrime, starting at the identity level
Cybercrime investigations stall when identity data is fragmented, incomplete, or buried in noise. SpyCloud Cybercrime Investigations brings identity to the center of your investigations, connecting breach, malware, and phishing exposures to reveal who’s involved, how they’re connected, and where to act next.
Start with a single selector – like an email address, username, phone number, domain, or IP – and pivot to uncover hidden relationships, alternate personas, and infrastructure tied to cybercrime activity.
With Research Agent, analysts can describe a subject, hypothesis, or batch of mixed assets in natural language and get a fully reasoned investigation plan, sequenced pivots, and finished intelligence in minutes, grounded in verified recaptured records.
Identity-centric investigations surface patterns of life and attribution signals that help analysts understand who’s behind the activity, not just what happened.
Raw data doesn’t stop threats, decisions do. Research Agent, AI Insights, and IDLink work as a layered system to move every analyst from first indicator to finished intelligence, regardless of skill level.

Choose how you deploy SpyCloud Cybercrime Investigations
Same intelligence. Two ways to operationalize it.
The Cybercrime Investigations Module is an AI-powered investigation console built on over one trillion recaptured identity assets. IDLink, Research Agent, and AI Insights work as a layered system: surfacing the full identity picture automatically, planning and running the investigation, and delivering finished intelligence analysts can act on and share. Analysts of all skill levels can now conduct investigations in minutes, not hours or days.
- Investigate at the speed of the question – Describe a subject, a hypothesis, or drop in a batch of mixed assets. Research Agent plans the investigation, sequences the pivots, and returns finished intelligence grounded in verified recaptured records. No query syntax required.
- Reveal the full identity picture automatically – IDLink correlation surfaces personal accounts, devices, aliases, criminal personas, and linked infrastructure without manual pivot steps. The connections that used to take hours surface in seconds.
- From findings to finished intelligence – AI Insights applies decades of SpyCloud investigative tradecraft to detect suspicious patterns, surface attribution signals, and produce executive-ready reports in seconds.

SpyCloud Cybercrime Investigations FAQs
SpyCloud Cybercrime Investigations is an AI-powered investigation platform built on the world’s largest recaptured identity corpus. Analysts and investigators at every skill level get direct access to over one trillion identity assets from infostealer malware logs, phishing kits, combolists, and breaches, with a layered set of capabilities designed to take teams from a single indicator to finished intelligence in minutes.
The investigation workflow moves through three layers. IDLink automatically correlates across the full digital identity, surfacing personal accounts, devices, aliases, credentials, and criminal personas without manual pivot steps. Research Agent (Pro) takes a question, a hypothesis, or a batch of mixed assets in natural language, plans the investigation, and runs the pivots across the data the way a senior analyst would, and returns finished intelligence grounded in verified recaptured records, with every finding traceable to a specific source. AI Insights (Pro) then applies decades of SpyCloud investigative tradecraft to detect behavioral patterns, surface attribution signals, and produce executive-ready reports in seconds.
The result: investigations that used to take hours now close in minutes, and every analyst on the team operates at the quality of your most experienced one.
The volume and complexity of OSINT data available to analysts and investigators makes it hard to quickly find the right information to remediate identity and supply chain exposures, mitigate insider threats, and complete cybercrime investigations. SpyCloud enriches your investigations with exclusive breach, phishing, and malware-sourced identity data; speeds up your workflows with automated IDLink pivoting; and improves your outcomes with high-confidence results.
After searching exact matches on an email, username, or phone number, IDLink automatically runs pivots in the background, looking for connections on everything that makes up a digital identity – from matching emails and backup emails, to shared and exposed PII, usernames, passwords, and over a dozen other asset types. SpyCloud Investigations with IDLink only returns new, highly-relevant results, removing any out-of-scope identity asset that slows down analysis. It also enhances raw data with additional context to give you a broader view of exposed identities and threats.
No. The intuitive interface and automated workflows are designed for analysts at all levels.
Yes. SpyCloud cross-references all data sources – from breaches, malware logs, and phishing campaigns – to uncover hidden relationships across identities and assets.
