Strengthening Identity Security: Real-World Credential Attack Detection with Seceon aiSIEM
Executive Overview Identity has become the primary attack surface in modern enterprise environments. Threat actors increasingly bypass traditional malware-based techniques and instead exploit compromised credentials to access cloud platforms, email systems, and business-critical applications. Credential abuse now drives ransomware campaigns, business email compromise, data exfiltration, and lateral movement within hybrid environments. Organizations must therefore detect…
