SafeID

RapidIdentity SafeID, Powered By SpyCloud

The use of stolen credentials remains the #1 way criminals gain access to networks and the sensitive information within, making them attractive targets for criminals. Even with strong password policies in place, bad user password habits can put an organization at risk. However, keeping tabs on users’ account security poses a substantial burden for IT teams.

RapidIdentity SafeID enables academic institutions to stay ahead of account takeovers and targeted attacks, like ransomware, by detecting and resetting compromised passwords— before criminals have a chance to use them. With SafeID, digital identity credentials are continuously monitored for passwords
known to be compromised in previous breaches. When compromised credentials are detected, SafeID automatically alerts the institution, and the user can then be enrolled in a multi-factor authentication (MFA) policy until their password is safely changed and the threat is removed.

RapidIdentity SafeID is designed to address the unique needs of your academic institution with features including:

• ACCOUNT TAKEOVER PREVENTION
  • Identify credential exposure up to 6-18 months before a data breach is made public and added to open-source databases.
• CONTINUOUS MONITORING
  • Achieve constant data surveillance to prevent user account takeovers, with peace of mind that SpyCloud researchers collect an estimated one billion new breach assets per month.
• PROACTIVE RISK NOTIFICATION
  • Provide IT instant notification as soon as an identity is deemed to be compromised due to their credentials being discovered in an external breach.
• EASY ACCOUNT REMEDIATION
  • Mitigate the threat quickly with streamlined identification and remediation of exposed identities, which are automatically included in a reporting dashboard and delegated administration view.
• SURGICAL REMEDIATION
  • Evaluate the credentials used by a specific identity to understand and set appropriate remediation paths based on the actual risk, instead of implementing a blanket blacklist.
• NIST PASSWORD ALIGNMENT
  • Align with NIST password standards by checking both new and existing passwords
    against billions of previously-exposed passwords.
