Account Takeover (ATO) Prevention

Account Takeover (ATO) attacks are among the fastest-growing threats to online accounts, targeting both consumer and workforce identities.
SecureAuth uses adaptive risk scoring, behavioral analytics, and device intelligence to stop unauthorized access before it causes damage — without degrading user experience.

Common challenges​

  • Credential stuffing & brute force from breached username/password lists
  • Phishing and MFA bypass targeting high-value accounts
  • Account lockouts from automated bot activity
  • Undetected mid-session account control after initial login
  • Damage to brand reputation and customer trust after ATO incidents

SecureAuth capabilities​

Risk Engine

Scores each login attempt based on device, location, network, and behavioral anomalies to flag suspicious activity.

Adaptive MFA

Challenges only high-risk logins with step-up authentication, preserving a frictionless experience for legitimate users.

Device Trust

Binds accounts to known, compliant devices and flags logins from unrecognized endpoints.

Credential breach detection

Integrates with breach intelligence feeds to detect compromised credentials before login.

SessionGuardian

Continuously validates user presence after login to prevent mid-session hijacking.

Key benefits​

✔ Block unauthorized access before it starts
✔ Reduce false positives with behavioral context
✔ Maintain user trust and brand reputation
✔ Meet compliance requirements for strong authentication (PCI DSS, NIST, PSD2)
