Axon Identity Threat Protection: Your Response Solution for Credential Compromise

Credential theft is rapidly escalating, driven primarily by sophisticated malware known as infostealers. In recent months, we've investigated numerous incidents where compromised employee credentials - often sourced from personal devices - were sold on dark web marketplaces, becoming the initial access vector for cyberattacks.

Axon Identity Threat Protection vs. Traditional Security Tools

Traditional threat intelligence solutions are insufficient, often providing outdated and contextless information from public breaches, as they don’t have any organizational data. This makes it difficult for security teams to take timely and relevant action, causing them to drown in false positives alerts. Challenges include irrelevant alerts (such as credentials from inactive employees) and a lack of visibility into whether passwords have already been reset or maliciously used, rendering many alerts ineffective.

To overcome these limitations, Hunters Research Team, Axon, has launched Axon Identity Threat Protection (Axon ITP) - a proactive solution specifically designed to address credential compromise post-breach, leveraging deep research, high-quality threat intelligence access, and advanced threat hunting expertise.
