Cast a Wider Net: UpGuard Now Scans 5x More Sources
At UpGuard, we know that in cybersecurity, timing is everything. That’s why we’ve enhanced our news and incident scanning with 500% more coverage, bringing you faster insights from high-impact sources. Now, SOC analysts and security teams can catch incidents affecting their organization or supply chain sooner, allowing for quicker, proactive responses to mitigate threats before they escalate.
The Technology Behind the Upgrade
This upgrade broadens our reach beyond traditional news sources, incorporating official reports and government databases to help you identify critical threats. To achieve this, we’ve implemented advanced collection capabilities that include:
- Enhanced news collectors: We use powerful search techniques and AI summarization to capture a wide range of security-related stories on the web.
- Expanded government and regulatory coverage: Data from high-trust sources adds verified insights into incidents and breaches.
With these advancements, UpGuard provides a fuller picture of emerging threats to your business, helping you detect and address incidents as they unfold.
Why This Matters
- Better incident awareness: By covering a wider range of news, official reports, and dark web sources, UpGuard ensures you catch critical incidents that may impact your ecosystem as they happen.
- More time to act: Casting a wider net means we see things faster, and you have more time to investigate incidents before they escalate, allowing you to minimize potential damage.
- Proactive impact management: UpGuard enables you to respond to threats earlier and take targeted actions to mitigate risks before they affect your operations.
- Strengthened security posture: With timely insights and broader visibility, you’re equipped to secure your organization better and stay ahead of potential threats.
What’s Next: Continual Improvement for a More Resilient Security Posture
