“The main attraction to ID Agent was the ability to quickly validate compromised credentials or information sets that existed on the internet. It was a really easy decision for us to make because what ID Agent was offering was far superior to what other vendors were offering us with similar solutions.”

The Challenge

CloudTech24 did not have viable tools to validate compromised credentials or discover other client vulnerabilities from dark web sources. This limited their ability to see what dangers their clients might face, reducing their opportunity to demonstrate to clients the need to take action to reduce that risk with dark web monitoring and security awareness training.

Looking Forward

CloudTech24 sees bright days ahead, with plenty of growth happening even in these challenging times. New sales opportunities keep coming all year round. Dark Web ID’s dark web search is a powerful prospecting tool that CloudTech24 can leverage to drive home the seriousness and danger of unexpected risk exposure to prospects, ultimately opening new security conversations and closing more deals.

“Few clients that we have spoken to have any idea that there is so much information out there. But then, also being able to show them the information, like the first four characters of their password after the search — that surprise, is quite a powerful tool.”
