Consumer ATO Prevention
Consumer ATO Prevention helps you spot compromised customers early and block account takeover by acting on identity evidence from the criminal underground — including breached credentials, identity exposures from malware-infected devices, and successfully phished logins.
Give security & fraud teams the earliest possible signal that a user is at risk, then reset or step-up before attackers get in.
🚀 What does Consumer ATO Prevention do?
- Continuously checks your consumers against SpyCloud’s recaptured breach, malware, and phished datasets to flag exposed identities.
- Detects credential reuse and replay to prevent ATO without adding unnecessary friction.
- Lets you automate outcomes via our flexible APIs and within your preferred tools and frameworks.
🧩 Key capabilities
- Early exposure detection at account creation & login to stop credential-based ATO.
- Credential risk evaluation (reused, exposed, or known-compromised passwords).
- Policy-driven actions (forced reset, step-up authentication, re-verification) tuned to source & severity.
- Low-friction UX by acting only on high-confidence events; reduce false positives & churn.
