Human Security: Digital Threat Protection that Targets Cybercrime Economics

An Intellyx Brain Candy Brief

Human Security has leveraged its expertise fighting ad fraud to build a platform that protects people against threats across the customer journey, including account takeover and fraud, transaction abuse, scraping, malvertising, and programmatic ad fraud.

Human takes an economic perspective on bad actors, understanding how they make money so that Human can disrupt their cybercrime processes.

Bots are responsible for many of the attacks that Human protects against, and thus its defense strategy centers on disrupting bot behavior.

By understanding the flow of money as individual bad actors purchase access to account credentials and other malicious content on the Dark Web, Human can understand and disrupt the activities of both the individual criminals as well as the crime organizations responsible for monetizing the malicious content.

Human also works with law enforcement and other government agencies to leverage the courts against adversaries as well as facilitating the takedowns of malicious bots and dark web sites.
