Public Sector & Government
The scale of today’s harmful activities—fraud, theft, ransom, money laundering, hacking, trafficking, exploitation and more—can overwhelm internal public sector teams and sideline agencies in their missions. Flashpoint provides quick, safe access to relevant data and threat intelligence that is openly sourced, actively monitored and vetted by human analysts. With it, agency teams have immediate access to the insider knowledge, insights, visibility and context they need to safely and decisively take action.
That is why Flashpoint is recognized by National Security partners as the globally trusted market leader in cyber operations intelligence support for missions that demand agile, comprehensive coverage of threat actors, threat actor activity, and global issues.
Cyber threat intelligence
Flashpoint provides CTI teams extensive and timely access to illicit communities including closed, invite-only, and password-protected sources, as well as paste sites, technical data, indicators of compromise, and stolen credentials exploited by illicit communities.
Global and domestic extremism
Flashpoint has been consistently and discreetly observing Violent Extremist Organizations (VEO) since the first instances of these groups using the internet for recruitment and propaganda.
- Violent Extremist Organizations, propaganda and recruitment
- Global and domestic physical security
- Protecting vulnerable populations
National security
Flashpoint collections and holdings enable National Security focused on Integrated Deterrence and other Global Issues. Conversations by threat actors in deep and dark web (DDW), closed source, and other illicit communities are valuable and signal-rich due to the anonymity, barriers to entry, and vetting processes established in many communities. Flashpoint collections cover highly targeted and curated sources focused on cyber-crime, VEO global extremist, drug and weapon, and other illicit community activities.
Law enforcement
Flashpoint informs on emerging trends that affect many Law Enforcement Organizations, including:
- Financial crime
- Entitlements program fraud
- Counter Cyber Crime
- Counternarcotics
- Supply chain risk
Critical infrastructure protection
Flashpoint provides cyber and physical security teams with threat intelligence on conversations within illicit communities to understand, manage, and reduce the risk to their cyber and physical infrastructure.
Unemployment or tax fraud
Flashpoint provides evidence of fraudulent activity from threat actors that are sharing unemployment and tax data through TTPS, user guides and other indicators on the dark web. Public Sector organizations rely on Flashpoint’s automated alerts and deep dives from RFIs to help identify, stop, and prosecute this activity.
Protecting K-12 students and personnel
Flashpoint’s K-12 risk management and security solution provides school boards and education security practitioners with the intelligence and tools they need to rapidly detect, prevent, and mitigate cyber and physical threats including ransomware and DDoS attacks, causing school systems to fall victim to data breaches and email compromise schemes.
