Protection Capabilities
Cyber attacks that rely on public social media platforms can be more difficult to detect and disrupt as they rely on a single party to take action — the platform itself. Netcraft’s social media monitoring and takedown platform enables you to track platform misuse and launch takedowns against these criminal impersonation attempts.
Identify and remove fake executive and employee profiles across social channels to reduce scams used to extract sensitive information and conduct advance-fee fraud. (Bluesky, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Telegram, TikTok, X, Weibo, and more).
Before Netcraft, takedowns could take days or even weeks. Now, most threats are removed within hours, which has made a significant difference for our team and leadership.
We’ve also seen a meaningful reduction in attack volume over time, while saving substantial analyst effort through automation. Netcraft has helped us stay ahead of threats and made brand protection far more efficient day to day.
