Cyble Optiv partnership brings digital risk protection into MSSP operations, enabling visibility into external threats across the open, deep, and dark web. Cyble is pleased to announce its partnership with Optiv, integrating Cyble's AI-powered Digital Risk Protection capabilities into Optiv's Managed Security Services (MSSP) platform and Advanced Fusion Center (AFC). This partnership gives enterprise security teams deeper visibility into external threats - helping organizations detect and respond to risks before they escalate into incidents. The problem security teams are facing. Cyber threats today rarely originate from within an organization's network perimeter. Threat actors operate across the open, deep, and dark web - trading stolen credentials, building phishing infrastructure, impersonating brands, and exposing sensitive data, often long before a target is aware. The most common external threats organizations face include: * Stolen credentials circulating on underground forums * Phishing infrastructure targeting employees and customers * Brand impersonation across domains, social media, and online marketplaces * Leaked intellectual property and exposed sensitive data * Threat actor activity signaling planned or active campaigns Traditional security tools - firewalls, endpoint protection, and SIEM systems - are largely blind to these threats. By the time organizations become aware, the damage is often already underway. What this partnership delivers. Cyble's platform continuously monitors the open, deep, and dark web, identifying threat indicators relevant to each organization. Integrated into Optiv's Advanced Fusion Center, these insights are brought directly into the managed security workflows that security teams rely on every day. This means security teams can now: * Monitor digital risk exposure across external threat environments * Identify threats targeting their brands, users, and infrastructure * Correlate external threat intelligence with internal security telemetry * Prioritize investigations based on real-world threat activity Rather than treating external intelligence as a separate data source, this partnership embeds it into day-to-day security operations - giving analysts the context they need, when they need it. Perspectives from both organizations. "External digital risks are becoming an increasingly important consideration for enterprise security teams," said Kevin Gerber, Vice President, Americas at Cyble. "This partnership with Optiv brings Digital Risk Protection directly into managed security operations, helping organizations gain visibility into threat activity across the open, deep, and dark web." "Organizations need broader visibility into external threats that may affect their users, brands, and digital assets," said Kathryn Hall, SVP, Services at Optiv. "Cyble's Digital Risk Protection capabilities add valuable context to our security operations, helping teams identify and monitor risks beyond the traditional network perimeter." Looking ahead. As organizations continue expanding their digital presence, the need for visibility beyond the traditional network boundary will only grow. Through this partnership, Cyble and Optiv are working together to help enterprise security teams stay ahead of emerging threats - combining intelligence, automation, and operational expertise to support more proactive and effective security operations.
