Monitoring for Identity Breaches: How Liongard Empowers MSPs to Safeguard Their Customers

In our technology-driven era, digital growth has led to expanded cybersecurity risks that leave businesses more vulnerable to damaging data breaches. As stewards of sensitive information for countless companies, managed service providers (MSPs) are especially susceptible to these evolving threats. That's why implementing rigorous identity breach monitoring is now a crucial priority for MSPs seeking to safeguard user data and maintain customer trust.

The stakes are high should they fail to take action. Left unaddressed, identity breaches can open the door to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, account takeover, and even complete business disruption. However, with the right solutions in place, MSPs can get ahead of potential threats and respond swiftly when user credentials are compromised.

Liongard Offers Powerful Breach Detection for MSPs

Liongard stands ready to help. Their platform enables MSPs to monitor customer identities across systems and receive actionable alerts at the first sign of a breach. Key capabilities include:

• Automated monitoring and reporting on compromised credentials
• Ongoing inspection of new user accounts added to Microsoft 365
• Tools to educate end users on breach prevention best practices

With Liongard, MSPs can leverage key metrics - like lists of users involved in password breaches - to quantify risk, take corrective action, and communicate with affected customers. The company's guidance on breach response draws from respected cybersecurity frameworks to help MSPs implement comprehensive incident response plans.

Real-World Examples Demonstrate the Risks

The potential damage of overlooked identity breaches is apparent in recent cases like the 2020 Cognizant attack. With losses ranging from $50-$70 million, the IT services giant suffered major financial and reputational damage from the ransomware attack it failed to detect in time.

The moral is clear: MSPs must prioritize continuous, automated monitoring of customer identities and credentials. With the right solutions, like Liongard's proactive breach detection, they can identify threats early and respond decisively to protect user data. In today's high-risk landscape, robust identity monitoring is no longer optional - it's an essential investment in the cyber resilience of MSPs and their customers alike.
