Case Study: Federal Bureau of Investigation achieves stronger executive protection and threat visibility with Flashpoint PSI

Federal Bureau of Investigation protects officials with Flashpoint after uncovering dozens of doxing results in seconds

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) needed to proactively identify online threats targeting public officials, including doxing and violent incitement on hard-to-access forums and paste sites. To address this challenge, the FBI utilized Flashpoint Physical Security Intelligence (PSI) to safely monitor these illicit online spaces for risk indicators.

Using Flashpoint PSI, the FBI was able to quickly discover doxes containing officials' personal information and violent threats, enabling them to take immediate protective action. The solution equipped the unit with the ability to continuously monitor for executives' personally identifiable information, allowing them to flag future risk indicators in near real-time to minimize or avoid harm.
