A backbone of our economy, Fortune 500 companies employ more than 31 million people worldwide.

Employee-Linked Account Exposure

According to data analyzed by the Enzoic research team, over the past three years of 2022, 2023, and 2024, more than three million employee-linked accounts became newly compromised by cybercriminals.

  • 1 in 10 Fortune 500 employees had their credentials exposed in recent years
  • 5.7 exposure average per compromised account

These leaked credentials pose significant risks, enabling account takeover (ATO), spear phishing attacks, fraud, and ransomware exploits.
