Domain and Email Threat Alerting

Domain and Email Threat Alerting enables your company(s) to gain awareness and take action if your domain or users' credentials are compromised.

By submitting your domain, we can perform a scan to determine if you or your users have any compromised data on the Dark Web. If this feature is not active in your account, reach out to our Sales Support team at support@symbolsecurity.com to enable it, as there is an additional fee associated with this implementation on your subscription.

You can view the list of Domain and Email Threats by logging into your Company Portal and selecting Threats -> Domain/Email. Here, you will find both the domains being scanned and a summary of any email credential threats identified. Click the "See More" button for detailed information on each threat.

Domain Threat Alerts

When you enable the Domain and Email Threat Alerting feature for your company, you will gain access to a comprehensive list of potential domain threats and variations that are similar to your original domain. Each domain threat provides the following details:

  • IP Address: The IP address where the domain is registered.
  • Breach Type: Various types of breaches, including subdomain, addition, insertion, omission, transposition, and more.
  • Registered By: The name of the individual or company that owns the domain.
  • Status: The status of each threat can vary based on your actions, with four possible statuses: Pending, Inactive, Overdue, and Reviewed.

Email Threat Alerts

In addition to monitoring domain threats, Symbol also offers insights into which of your users have compromised data on the Dark Web. For each email credential threat, you can view the following information:

  • Threat Name: The website where the data breach occurred.
  • Threat Date: The date the breach was reported.
  • Type: The specific type of information that has been compromised for that user.
  • Status: The status of each threat can vary based on your actions, with four possible statuses: Action Needed, AUP, Overdue, and Resolved.

Important: In order to start scanning your users' emails, first you need to manually enable it from Threats > Domain/Email and click on the "Email Threats" tab. 

Once it's enabled in your company, all past and future users with email credential threats on your list will receive an email notification. This email will outline the compromised data and provide instructions on how to take action through the User Portal.

If you prefer not to notify users about these threats, you can disable the Domain and Email Threat Alerting notifications within your company settings.

All data regarding domain breaches and user threats is also reflected on your company Dashboard and included in your Boardroom Report.
