The company finds data that has been stolen, or data that has been leaked by accident - generally by third-party partners and suppliers. Its solution scans the visible, deep and dark webs, but it is also the only one scanning the major source of negligent leaks:Connected Storage. Its approach to data-leak detection combines Artificial Intelligence and human expertise. Smart algorithms ensure rapid and precise detection, while machine learning focuses alerts based on what is most important to their clients. And yet it’s not machines that put together your alerts - it’s people.
