ANONYMISED CLIENT CASE STUDY
Finding exposed credentials before the next move.
A UK automotive marketplace needed visibility of brand impersonation and exposed credentials belonging to senior people.
01 / THE CHALLENGE
What needed to change.
A recognisable brand and a large digital footprint created opportunities for lookalike domains, fake social accounts and credential exposure. The team needed relevant findings without having to investigate every alert itself.
02 / THE SERVICE
Brand protection + credential monitoring.
HancoCyber combined brand protection and takedown support with VIP credential monitoring. Analysts reviewed alerts from external asset monitoring, dark web sources and leaked credential lists, escalating relevant issues through a ticketing process and monthly reports.
03 / DOCUMENTED FINDINGS
What the service brought into view.
During a recent quarter, analysts triaged more than 3,000 alerts across a monitored inventory of more than 30,000 asset records. Findings included impersonating domains, fake social accounts and exposed employee credentials. A senior person’s email address, password and session tokens were identified and escalated to the client.
This case study covers detection and escalation. Completion of password resets, session revocation and account review is outside the reported outcome.
In the client’s words.
CLIENT PERSPECTIVE
“Working with HancoCyber has been straightforward and genuinely collaborative from day one. Their team listens carefully to what we need, responds quickly when requests come in, and manages our account without friction. Crucially, the intelligence and reporting they provide gives our security team clear, practical information we can act on immediately rather than sifting through generic noise.”
