Case Study: Federal Law Enforcement Agency tackles cyber attribution with LookingGlass Cyber Solutions

How a federal law enforcement agency tackles cyber attribution

A Federal Law Enforcement Agency used LookingGlass Cyber Solutions to help with cyber attribution and incident response as it investigates crimes like intellectual property theft, fraud, and unauthorized access. Team NXS, the agency’s cyber crime group, needed a way to quickly identify indicators of compromise, support local and international investigations, and gather technical evidence strong enough to stand up in court.

LookingGlass Cyber Solutions provided actionable threat intelligence, network footprint mapping, DNS history, Shodan tags, and analyst support to help the agency prioritize leads, identify victims, and attribute malicious actors more effectively. The results included faster investigations, reduced manual work, and major mission impact: more than 65,000 domains sourced and analyzed, over $18 million in fraudulent transactions and recovered funds impacted, and more than 180 criminal arrests as of October 2020.
