- 05
Where it comes from
Links to the public reports behind the profile, so you can check every detail for yourself.

Is it a risk to your business?
A public profile tells you who a group is. Your account tells you whether it matters to you: we match the software you run to the flaws threat groups use, and we keep watching, so you hear about anything that affects you as soon as we know.
- Over 900 group profiles in the app, every claim backed by a quote and a source link.
- Your sector at a glance: which threat groups and ransomware gangs are hitting it.
- Flaws in the software you run, ranked 0 to 100, with threat group activity counted in.
- A PDF dossier on any group, ready to send to your board or your IT provider.
A threat group is a team of attackers that security researchers have tracked across many attacks. Some are criminals after money, such as ransomware gangs. Others are thought to work for governments, collecting intelligence or causing disruption.
APT stands for advanced persistent threat: a well-resourced group, often state-backed, that gets into a network and tries to stay unnoticed for a long time. Many of the groups in this directory are APTs.
Researchers link attacks to a group by the tools, servers, techniques and targets they share. Different security companies often give the same group different names, which is why each profile lists its other names.
No. Every profile in this directory is open to read without an account.
Profiles of over 900 groups with a quote and a source behind every claim, a view of who is targeting your sector, PDF dossiers to share, and the software you run matched against known flaws, ranked from 0 to 100.
Know who is coming, and what to fix first.
Create a free account and tell us the software you run. We match the software you run against flaws threat groups use, rank them 0 to 100 and keep watching, so you hear about it as soon as we know.
