Ontic, the protective intelligence software innovator digitally transforming how companies actively identify, investigate, assess, watch and manage physical security threats, has announced a strategic integration with Flashpoint, the globally renowned company in actionable threat intelligence, enabling organisations to protect their assets and stakeholders from malicious activity, across the internet.

Rise in cyber and physical threats

Cyber and physical threats are increasing at exponential rates and because they are more often than not connected, companies need to address them holistically,” said Manish Mehta, the Chief Product Officer, Ontic.

Manish Mehta adds, “Flashpoint is a leader in the cyber security space, and our integration helps our mutual clients break down security data silos, allowing them to gain more visibility into the threat landscape and proactively combat risk.

Insider threats that are difficult to detect are growing in frequency and causing great damage to businesses

Insider threats that are difficult to detect are growing in frequency and causing great damage to businesses. With the integration of Flashpoint Alerting, Ontic’s Fortune 500 and emerging enterprise clients will be able to augment their data, with Ontic’s existing dark web and cyber intelligence, to paint an even fuller picture of potential physical and cyber threats.

As the threat landscape dramatically evolves, companies are focusing on convergence of physical and cyber security operations. This integration will enable the automatic flow of Flashpoint Alerting concerning cyber and dark web-related data, to physical security teams, thereby improving visibility, and the efficiency of security personnel, to act on critical intelligence, in a proactive manner.

Critical threat intelligence for security teams

The integration of Ontic and Flashpoint provides critical threat intelligence to physical and cyber security teams, so that they can quickly identify and act on harmful threats that can impact an organisation,” said Flashpoint’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Josh Lefkowitz.

Josh Lefkowitz adds, “We’re excited to partner with Ontic to provide deeper insights into cyber threats and help corporate security teams protect their largest assets.
