How Login Security Helps Businesses Combat Identity-Based Threats

Your view of the inbox: A long day of circling back, scheduling meetings, and dodging spam.

An attacker’s view: A one-way ticket to sensitive data, lateral network movement, and an easy payout.

Attackers favor email because it is ubiquitous and highly vulnerable to human error. Employees use it constantly — at their desks, waiting in line for lunch, or commuting home. Unfortunately, all it takes for a successful compromise is a single, absent-minded click.

What if you could automatically reduce the risk of the leading cause of cyber insurance claims before the damage is done?

We’ve launched Login Security to help do exactly that. It continuously monitors for suspicious login activity and automatically contains attackers in seconds, providing enterprise-grade defense right in Coalition Control.

Business email compromise (BEC) is the #1 reason businesses file cyber claims, with attack frequency jumping 15% year-over-year.

The state of the email threat landscape 

Today, business email compromise (BEC) is the #1 reason businesses file cyber claims, with attack frequency jumping 15% year-over-year. Small and midsize businesses (SMBs) are at a particular disadvantage.

Attacks are accelerating 

Generative AI has supercharged phishing attacks, enabling threat actors to evade detection with grammatically perfect messages tailored for individual recipients. Attackers are now able to deploy entire social engineering campaigns at unprecedented speed and scale. In 2025, AI-powered phishing resulted in a new email-based attack every 19 seconds. 

Many SMBs aren’t adequately protected 

Despite the increasing risk, many SMBs struggle to access a solution that is simple, affordable, and easy to deploy. They often lack internal security teams and existing solutions are frequently too complex or expensive to implement. Even “affordable” Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) — tools that focus on monitoring identity providers like Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 — are priced per user and require resource-strapped teams to remediate issues directly. .

How Login Security works

Many businesses aren’t aware of an email compromise until it escalates, often when funds are already directed to an attacker-controlled account. In the meantime, attackers can collect sensitive data, monitor user behavior, or move laterally.

Threat actors have been observed sending phishing emails to other accounts 47 seconds after an initial compromise. The clock is ticking from the second an attacker gets inside — and you don’t have days, you have seconds to react.

Login Security monitors login activity 24/7 to detect suspicious activity early, such as unlikely travel, suspicious logins, and the creation of malicious inbox rules. 

Proactive

Login Security monitors login activity 24/7 to detect suspicious activity early, such as unlikely travel, suspicious logins, and the creation of malicious inbox rules. 

For example, Login Security remembers employee patterns. If an employee signed in from Kentucky, but is now attempting to sign into the account from a Romanian VPN an hour later, the behavior will be flagged.

Automated

Login Security doesn’t boomerang the responsibility back for the business to triage. In the era of AI-enhanced attackers, there’s no time to wait for the lone IT employee to catch every alert, investigate, and act. When a high-confidence threat is detected, Login Security can automatically terminate active sessions. If needed, the employee will then be prompted to reset their password at the next login.

Integrated

Login Security is included in the Coalition Control dashboard. Now, in addition to staying ahead of evolving risk with continuous monitoring of your digital footprint and notifications on new vulnerabilities, you can turn to Control for an automated defense against email-based attacks.

No additional software or tools are required. Policyholders can easily connect Login Security with either Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace in just a few clicks.

Enterprise-grade defense inside Coalition Control 

Cybersecurity doesn’t need to be expensive and complicated to work. Login Security provides SMBs with near-instantaneous, automated threat detection — without the need for new software, costly add-ons, or additional security headcount.
