Cyber Threat Intelligence

Brand Intelligence

Brand can be your organisation’s most valuable asset, driving customer, employee, and partner trust. Typosquat websites, leaked data, and command-and-control attacks are a few ways threat actors may attack your brand, all orchestrated outside of your security perimeter, leaving organisations blindsided.

Gemserv’s Brand Intelligence solution arms you with actionable, up-to-the-minute analytical insights to proactively defend against new and emerging threats to your brand, products, employees, executives, and customers. We help with the following use cases:

• Data and credential leak monitoring.
• Brand misuse.
• Brand impersonation detection.
• Executive impersonation detection.

Technology Stack Monitoring

Organisations struggle to keep up with the overwhelming volume of vulnerabilities that they are supposed to patch. There were over 20,000 disclosed vulnerabilities in 2021 alone, with thousands of them rated as critical.

Only a very small percentage (~6%) of vulnerabilities are ever actually exploited in the wild. In other words, companies spend an enormous amount of time, money, and effort on vulnerabilities that are very low risk. With Gemserv’s technology stack monitoring service, you get access to real-time security intelligence on vulnerabilities, allowing you to focus your attention on the vulnerabilities actually matter. We focus on two use cases:

• Vulnerability prioritisation. We score vulnerability risk in real-time, making it easy to understand which vulnerabilities you should prioritise.
• Monitoring for vulnerabilities in your tech stack. We can also proactively alert organisations to new vulnerabilities affecting the specific technology services that are key to them.

Extended Supply Chain Monitoring

Because businesses and their supply chains are so tightly integrated, it’s critical to consider the security of your partners, vendors, and other third parties when assessing the risk profile of your own organisation.

Traditional third-party risk assessment methods rely on static outputs and become outdated quickly, and they don’t provide the comprehensive intelligence you need to make informed decisions about managing third-party risks to your organisation.

By monitoring your supply chain in real time, you will be able to get instant, deep visibility into your third parties, collecting information such as:

• Active vulnerabilities affecting suppliers and vendors.
• Attacks and cyber incidents information affecting suppliers and vendors.
• Data breaches affecting suppliers and vendors.

Geopolitical Intelligence

Whether you’re in the private or public sector, understanding location-based risks and the geopolitical context of your organisation’s practices is imperative for an effective security strategy. This includes monitoring the geographic areas surrounding offices, facilities, assets, physical events, and critical third-party organisations.

Gemserv can offer automatic collection and curation of location-based, real-time threat intelligence, which allows organisations to effectively monitor, report on (in the form of finished intelligence), and quickly respond to physical threats. This allows organisations to:

• Accelerate critical decision-making with contextual data on geopolitical threats and trends to understand shifting dynamics in the geographic areas that matter to your organisation.

Infrastructure Monitoring

Domains and IP addresses make up an organisation’s essential internet infrastructure. It is also a very concrete element of their attack surface. Understanding what’s going on inside your network is only half of the story. Ensuring organisations have a good visibility into the external world is key, and sometimes challenging.

Gemserv’s infrastructure monitoring helps with:

• Domain abuse detection. We automatically detect typosquat websites as they are registered and as they’re actually weaponised. Our automated analysis provides context about the severity of a typosquat or copycat domain.
• IP monitoring. We notify you if your company’s IP address(es) have an elevated risk score so you can investigate and secure your network.

Social Media Monitoring

Our solutions provides insights and visibility into all forms of mainstream social media, as well as instant messaging platforms and forums. Our operations team provides up-to-date intelligence on activity that could impact your organisation. The SOCMINT team can be tasked with tracking and collating activity related to specific topics of interest. Features include:

• Social media, instant messaging, and forum discussion monitoring. Browse, search, and filter by keywords to highlight trends and track malicious activity impacting your image and reputation.
• Real-time sentiment analysis. In addition to monitoring social media platforms, we monitor a wide range of mainstream news sources to inform you of positive or negative coverage and sentiments expressed towards your organisation.
