Case Study: Alvarez and Marsal prevents account takeover with SpyCloud Active Directory Guardian

Alvarez and Marsal protects 6,000+ users from account takeover with SpyCloud

Alvarez and Marsal, a global professional services firm with over 6,000 employees, faced a significant challenge with compromised employee passwords, which created a major risk for account takeover attacks. To address this, the firm turned to SpyCloud and its solution, Active Directory Guardian.

SpyCloud implemented its Active Directory Guardian to automate the detection of exposed credentials and force immediate password resets. This solution provided Alvarez and Marsal with robust protection against account takeover, ensured compliance with GDPR and CCPA, and even improved their cybersecurity insurance risk score. The SpyCloud automation became a foundational element of the firm's security program, effectively closing gaps caused by poor password hygiene.
