What is Account Takeover (ATO) and how to defend against it.
Protecting your business from evolving cyber threats requires continuous vigilance. Threat actors are always finding new ways to compromise sensitive data, with account takeover (ATO) being a key method. Attackers can obtain account details through tactics like dark web purchases, social engineering, data breaches, and phishing campaigns. Automated bots also contribute by testing username and password combinations, increasing vulnerability. The fallout from data being compromised can be severe, from losing customers to reputational damage—33% of consumers say they would stop using a business after an account breach.
Defending against account takeover is essential, and Absolute’s managed cybersecurity services offer proactive monitoring, threat identification, and immediate action to protect your accounts. By ensuring only authorized access and detecting unusual logins, Absolute can help safeguard your business from these digital threats.
