Cynox

Cynox is an enterprise password intelligence, risk detection and enforcement platform that continuously analyses credentials against breach data, detects leaked or compromised passwords in real time, and automatically enforces security controls — turning passwords from a persistent liability into a controlled security asset.

Most enterprise breaches begin with compromised credentials. Passwords leak constantly through breaches, malware, phishing, and third-party compromises — yet most organisations have no way of knowing which corporate passwords are already exposed, no mechanism to detect them in active use, and no capability to respond at the speed and scale required. Static policies, user training, and manual remediation are not adequate defences. Cynox closes every one of these gaps with continuous intelligence, real-time enforcement, and automated remediation — shifting credential security from a reactive burden into a proactive, automated control.

Key Capabilities

Core Capability

Password Intelligence & Leak Detection:

Continuously analyses existing passwords across the enterprise environment and correlates them against global breach datasets, real-time breach intelligence feeds, and threat intelligence sources — identifying exposed credentials before they are exploited, without relying on user reporting or manual investigation.

SIEM & SOAR Integration:

Exports all password risk events to SIEM platforms for centralised logging, audit trails, and compliance evidence, and integrates with SOAR platforms to trigger automated responses including forced resets, account restrictions, user notifications, and escalation workflows.

Device-Based Blast Radius Control:

When a leaked account is identified, Cynox maps all users sharing the same device and automatically extends the enforcement action to every affected account — closing the lateral movement gap that most security tools leave entirely unaddressed.

Advanced Dynamic Policy Engine:

Replaces static, composition-based password rules with a risk-adaptive policy engine that applies controls based on user, group, device, risk score, and threat intelligence signals — automatically tightening or adjusting enforcement as conditions change across the environment.

Real-Time Password Change Blocking:

Intercepts password change and reset events the moment they occur, instantly blocking any new password that matches a leaked dataset, violates NIST 800-63B aligned policy, contains personal identity data, or reuses a previously blocked credential — enforcing security at the point of change with no manual review.

Password Intelligence & Leak Detection:

Continuously analyses existing passwords across the enterprise environment and correlates them against global breach datasets, real-time breach intelligence feeds, and threat intelligence sources — identifying exposed credentials before they are exploited, without relying on user reporting or manual investigation.

Unlike traditional password policy tools or bolt-on IAM features, Cynox was purpose-built as a dedicated credential intelligence platform. It integrates natively with Active Directory without disrupting existing workflows, operates with a zero plaintext password security model, and delivers enforcement and response at enterprise scale — including device-based blast radius control that most security tools ignore entirely. For organisations that need to address credential risk seriously without adding operational complexity, Cynox delivers the depth, automation, and integration that no other single product provides.

Real-World Impact

Elimination of Undetected Credential Exposure:

Organisations gain continuous visibility into which accounts are operating with leaked, reused, or high-risk passwords — replacing the current reality for most enterprises, where compromised credentials can remain in active use for months before discovery.

Prevention of Credential-Based Breaches:

By blocking non-compliant and leaked passwords in real time at the point of change, Cynox removes the window of opportunity that attackers rely on — shifting the security posture from reactive containment to active prevention.

Dramatic Reduction in Manual SOC Workload:

Automated detection, enforcement, and remediation at enterprise scale eliminates the manual investigation and response cycles that consume SOC analyst time — allowing teams to focus on higher-complexity threats rather than credential hygiene operations.

Faster, More Complete Incident Containment:

When credential exposure is detected, Cynox responds in minutes across thousands of accounts rather than the days typically required for manual remediation — including blast radius analysis across shared devices that manual processes routinely miss.

Continuous Compliance with NIST 800-63B:

Automated alignment with modern password guidance replaces the composition-based rules that NIST explicitly discourages, enabling organisations to demonstrate compliance with current standards without ongoing policy maintenance.

Reduced Dependence on User Behaviour:

By enforcing security decisions automatically at the system level, Cynox removes the reliance on users making secure password choices — addressing one of the most consistently exploited weaknesses in enterprise security programmes.
