HASP Overview

What is Human Attack Surface Protection?

Human Attack Surface Protection (HASP) is a cybersecurity discipline focused on protecting employees from being exploited as the initial entry point for cyber attacks such as phishing, credential theft, and social engineering.

The Problem

It's a Human Attack Surface problem.

Security teams invest millions in perimeter defense, but attackers simply log in through people. The human layer is the most exploited and least protected

Credential Theft is the #1 Attack Vector

By detecting phishing activity and credential harvesting attempts early, organizations and governments can stop attackers before they gain access and disrupt operations.

Employees Are the New Perimeter

With remote work and cloud adoption, your people — not your firewall — are the front line. Every employee is a potential entry point.

No Visibility Into the Human Attack Surface

Security teams can monitor endpoints, networks, and clouds. But they're blind to how attackers target, manipulate, and compromise people.

Ransomware Is Now One of the Most Common Breaches

● Ransomware was involved in 44% of all security breaches in 2025.

● Ransomware accounts for about 28% of malware incidents globally.

Governments & Critical Infrastructure Are Increasingly Targeted

● Attacks against government organizations increased 65% year-over-year in 2025.

● In the U.S. alone, ransomware accounts for ~50% of global incidents.

Phishing & Credential Theft Are Leading Entry Points

● Phishing is the leading entry point for ransomware, responsible for ~35% of attacks.

The Security Gap

Why traditional security tools fail to stop phishing

Most organizations already deploy email filtering, endpoint protection, and network security tools. Yet phishing remains the leading entry point for ransomware and identity compromise.

The reason is simple: modern attackers no longer rely on malware. They rely on stolen credentials and trusted login sessions. Traditional security tools were not designed to protect the human attack surface.

 

Email Security Stops Known Threats

Email gateways are effective at blocking known malicious attachments and spam campaigns. However, modern phishing attacks often use newly registered domains, legitimate cloud services, or compromised accounts that evade traditional filtering.

Endpoint Security Focuses on Malware

Endpoint protection platforms are designed to detect malicious software running on a device. Phishing attacks often contain no malware at all — they simply trick users into entering credentials on fake login pages.

The Result: Attackers Walk Through the Front Door

Instead of breaking into systems, attackers simply log in with stolen credentials, move laterally across environments, and deploy ransomware once they have established control.

The Missing Layer: Human Attack Surface Protection

ViperShield was built to address the most targeted layer of modern cybersecurity: people. By detecting phishing activity, blocking credential harvesting attempts, and identifying suspicious identity behavior, ViperShield stops attacks before attackers gain access to critical systems.

The Solution

How ViperShield protects you

ViperShield protects organizations and governments by stopping credential theft before attackers gain access, move laterally across networks, or deploy ransomware.

Detect Credential Threats in Real Time

ViperShield continuously monitors for phishing campaigns, credential harvesting sites, and social engineering attempts targeting your organization.

Block Before Access

Stop credential theft before attackers gain access. ViperShield neutralizes threats at the human layer — before lateral movement or ransomware deployment.

Protect Identity at Every Layer

From email to browser to cloud apps, ViperShield secures every human interaction point where attackers try to steal credentials and compromise identities.

Full Human Attack Surface Visibility

Security teams finally get a unified view of how their people are being targeted, who's at risk, and what threats have been neutralized — in real time.

The Identity Safety Net

Beyond the Perimeter

While Secure Email Gateways (SEGs) and Endpoint Detection (EDR) provide critical protection, attackers have learned to slip through the cracks using sophisticated, browser-based tactics. ViperShield fills this gap by providing real-time URL interception and identity visibility that traditional perimeters simply cannot see.

We catch what they miss, so your team doesn't become the breach.

SEGs

Email gateways catch known threats but miss zero-day phishing links that activate after delivery.

EDR

Endpoint tools detect malware—but credential theft happens in the browser, not on disk.

ViperShield

Real-time URL interception and identity visibility at the point of click—before damage is done.

What We Deliver

Security at the speed of attack

Five capabilities that transform how organizations defend their human attack surface.

 

Zero-Latency URL Interception

Neutralize malicious intent at the point of interaction. ViperShield operates within the browser to intercept sophisticated URLs and social engineering across all platforms — email, chat, and web — before the first byte of a page can load.

Radical Compression of MTTR

Shift from reactive cleanup to proactive prevention. By automating the response to suspicious web activity, we reduce your Mean Time to Respond from hours of manual triage to milliseconds of automated intelligence.

Identity-Centric Perimeter Defense

Protect the modern workforce where they live: the browser. Our intelligence engine identifies credential harvesting and "Browser-in-the-Middle" attacks in real-time, hardening your human attack surface without the friction of traditional security tools.

Actionable Executive Intelligence

Turn raw telemetry into board-level strategy. Our command center provides high-fidelity attribution and "blast radius" mapping, giving leadership a clear, automated narrative of neutralized threats and overall organizational risk posture.

Seamless Ecosystem Integration

Deploy in minutes, not months. ViperShield integrates natively with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace environments, enhancing your existing security stack with a specialized intelligence layer designed for the modern identity perimeter.

Who We Protect

Industries We Protect

ViperShield protects organizations across critical industries from phishing-driven ransomware attacks.

 

Healthcare

Healthcare organizations rely on constant system availability. ViperShield helps stop phishing-based credential attacks that can disrupt patient care and expose sensitive data.

Manufacturing

Manufacturing companies depend on operational technology and connected systems. ViperShield prevents credential compromise that could lead to operational shutdowns or ransomware.

Financial Services

Financial organizations face constant phishing and fraud attempts. ViperShield detects credential compromise early to prevent financial data breaches and ransomware incidents.

Technology

Technology companies operate cloud-first environments where credential theft can spread quickly. ViperShield stops phishing attacks before they become ransomware threats.

Protecting the Human Attack Surface

Ransomware rarely begins with encryption.
It begins with a phishing email designed to steal credentials.

Modern attackers no longer break into systems—they log in using compromised identities.
Once inside, they move laterally across networks, escalate privileges, and deploy ransomware.

ViperShield is built to stop these attacks at the earliest stage.

Our platform protects organizations and governments by detecting phishing activity,
blocking credential harvesting attempts, and preventing attackers from gaining access
to critical systems.

Real-time phishing link detection
