Why Flashpoint?

Organizations are navigating increasingly dynamic and complex security challenges

Businesses and governments stand at the frontlines of an ever-evolving digital and physical risk landscape, grappling with myriad challenges that loom larger and more complex than ever before. Specifically, rapid technological advancements, relentless cyber threats, stringent regulatory demands, and the convergence of the cyber and physical landscape have become sources of both opportunity and risk. In response, leaders must increasingly aggregate, transform, analyze, and enrich online information to guide effective decision-making.

Our approach to threat intelligence

Threat intelligence should help organizations make quicker and better-informed decisions that help safeguard invaluable data, avoid financial loss, protect lives and critical assets, and maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of security investments and resources.

We believe threat intelligence must go far beyond exclusive reliance on automated data collection. We start by accessing the broadest, deepest, and most relevant data by leveraging automation and embedding established subject matter experts into the rapidly evolving open and difficult-to-access online spaces where threat actors plan and execute attacks.
