How It Works & Set Up

SpyCloud VIP Guardian helps you extend your employee account takeover prevention strategy to key executives' personal accounts, without invading their privacy. Empower your executives to lock criminals out of vulnerable accounts by giving them visibility of their own breach exposure with SpyCloud.


⚙️ How It Works

  1. Easily deploy to your executives with privileged access with one link that’s unique to your organization.

  2. To control access to the service and prevent abuse, employees must register using an email address from a verified domain in your watchlist (ex, [email protected]).

  3. After creating an account, each user can verify and monitor up to 10 personal email addresses for breach exposures.

  4. Executives can view their exposure data within the portal and will receive an email alert when one of their email addresses appears in a new data breach.

  5. Track how many executives register for the service within your enterprise portal.

Note: For privacy, executives’ personal information (email addresses, passwords, PII, etc) will not be accessible by your organization.
