Cyber-attacks such as distributed denial-of-service (DDoS), phishing and malware, have long been used by cybercriminals to profit at the expense of businesses and their customers. PhishLabs stops these attacks and prevents future threats by disabling the ecosystem (i.e. compromised hosts, tools and services) that cybercriminals rely on to plan, stage, launch and monetize attacks.
“It’s great to bring my experience to a team that fights back against external cyber threats,” said Mr. Hilfiger. “Not only do we stop attacks that are happening, we also make it painful for the cybercriminals that target our clients. It’s a compelling, unique approach that prevents future online attacks.”
