Protect What Lives Outside Your Perimeter

Most security investments defend what is inside the firewall. Attackers operate outside it — targeting your brand, executives, customers, and digital assets across the open web, social media, and the dark web. ZeroFox closes that gap, delivered as a managed service by EnCyb.

Platform at a Glance

Threats disrupted annually through ZeroFox's Global Disruption Network

2 M+

Digital platforms continuously monitored — social, dark web, marketplaces, and forums

180 +

Pre-built connectors for integration with SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, and ticketing platforms

700 +

The perimeter has moved. Most security programmes have not.

Your SIEM, EDR, and firewall are blind to external threats. The attack surface your adversaries target sits entirely outside your control.

Undetected Brand Abuse

Fraudulent domains, fake social profiles, and counterfeit listings damage customer trust and redirect revenue — and none of it appears in your internal logs.

Executive Targeting

C-suite impersonation, credential exposure, and physical threat signals on the dark web — these risks escalate before traditional security tooling sees them.

Invisible External Exposure

Unmanaged internet-facing assets, shadow cloud infrastructure, and third-party supply chain exposures remain unknown until an attacker exploits them.

About ZeroFox

External Cybersecurity — A Distinct and Growing Discipline

ZeroFox defines and leads the category of external cybersecurity — security for everything that exists and operates outside the corporate perimeter. While traditional security tools monitor network traffic, endpoints, and internal systems, ZeroFox focuses on the digital footprint your organisation leaves in the public domain: domains, social accounts, brand presence, executive identities, and internet-exposed assets.

The platform unifies four core disciplines — Digital Risk ProtectionExternal Attack Surface ManagementCyber Threat Intelligence, and Automated Takedowns — in a single managed service delivered by EnCyb for organisations across the GCC.

For GCC enterprises operating under NESA, CBUAE frameworks, PDPL, and DIFC/ADGM requirements, ZeroFox provides the external visibility layer that regulators increasingly expect security programmes to demonstrate.

  • Automated and analyst-assisted workflows for fast, scalable response
  • Escalation paths for coordinated campaigns requiring legal or law enforcement referral
Use Cases

Threats CISOs Cannot Afford to Miss

Structured around the external threat scenarios most frequently impacting GCC enterprises in BFSI and regulated industries.

01
Brand & Fraud Risk

Customers Are Being Defrauded via Fake Versions of Our Brand

CBUAE
NESA
PDPL

The Problem

Fraudulent social media accounts, lookalike domains, and fake mobile apps impersonate your brand to harvest customer credentials and payment data. These channels operate entirely outside your network perimeter — invisible to your SIEM and endpoint controls. By the time customers report fraud, significant damage has already occurred.

How ZeroFox Addresses It

ZeroFox continuously monitors 180+ platforms for brand impersonation signals — matching logos, messaging, and domain patterns using AI and image recognition. Confirmed threats are disrupted through the Global Disruption Network. Takedowns are executed without requiring your team to manage platform relationships.

What EnCyb Delivers

EnCyb manages the ZeroFox deployment, configures brand seeds specific to your digital presence, and provides validated alerts integrated directly into your existing incident response workflow. Regulatory evidence packages are produced for CBUAE reporting obligations where required.

02
Credential & Dark Web Exposure

Our Employee or Customer Credentials Are on the Dark Web Before We Know It

PDPL
NESA NCA
DIFC

The Problem

Stealer malware, third-party data breaches, and phishing campaigns routinely surface employee credentials and customer PII in dark web marketplaces. Without visibility into these channels, your first indication of exposure is often an active breach — not a warning sign. GCC regulators increasingly expect organisations to demonstrate proactive monitoring.

How ZeroFox Addresses It

ZeroFox’s dark web intelligence team — including Dark Ops analysts with authenticated access to invite-only closed forums — continuously monitors stealer logs, combo lists, paste sites, and credential marketplaces. Validated exposures are escalated within hours, with timestamped evidence suitable for regulatory filings

What EnCyb Delivers

EnCyb operationalises ZeroFox dark web findings within your SOC — correlating exposed credentials against active accounts, triggering forced password resets, and feeding detections into your SIEM. We align findings to PDPL notification obligations and NESA threat intelligence requirements.

03
Attack Surface Visibility

We Don't Have Full Visibility of What We're Exposing to the Internet

NESA
NCA ECC
ADGM

The Problem

Digital transformation, multi-cloud adoption, and distributed development teams create internet-facing assets that were never formally catalogued. Shadow IT, abandoned cloud environments, and third-party integrations expand your external attack surface beyond what your asset management tools track. Attackers find these assets routinely — through automated scanning.

How ZeroFox Addresses It

ZeroFox EASM continuously discovers and inventories every external-facing asset — known and unknown — enriched with vulnerability data and contextual threat intelligence. Exposures are scored based on real attacker interest, not just CVE severity, enabling risk-proportionate remediation prioritisation. Third-party and supply chain assets are also surfaced.

What EnCyb Delivers

EnCyb configures EASM discovery scoped to your organisation’s digital footprint, manages ongoing monitoring, and integrates findings into your vulnerability management programme. Executive-level risk dashboards support NESA and NCA ECC compliance reporting, with remediation tracked to closure.

04
Leadership & Reputation Risk

Our Executives Are Being Targeted Online and We Need Early Warning

VARA
DIFC
PDPL

The Problem

Executive impersonation, doxxing, credential exposure, and physical threat signals have moved from edge cases to board-level concerns. Over 75% of executives have personal credentials for sale on underground marketplaces. Deepfake technology has made synthetic impersonation accessible to a far broader range of threat actors. Targeted attacks on leadership carry reputational and physical risk consequences.

How ZeroFox Addresses It

ZeroFox monitors social media, forums, the dark web, and location-adjacent signals for impersonation and physical threat indicators specific to named executives and VIPs. PII is automatically removed from data broker sites to reduce the targeting surface. Confirmed threats are disrupted through takedowns — not just flagged for manual review.

What EnCyb Delivers

EnCyb onboards executive and VIP profiles into ZeroFox, manages ongoing monitoring, and escalates high-confidence threats through your governance chain. For regulated entities in DIFC and ADGM, executive protection monitoring supports broader cybersecurity governance requirements and board-level reporting obligations.

Why EnCyb

ZeroFox Delivered as a Managed Service for the GCC

GCC Regulatory Alignment Built In

EnCyb maps ZeroFox findings to the regulatory obligations most relevant to your organisation — CBUAE Electronic Fraud Management, NESA threat intelligence requirements, PDPL personal data breach obligations, and DIFC/ADGM cybersecurity frameworks. External threat evidence is documented in formats suitable for regulator engagement.

Rapid Time to Value

EnCyb's phased delivery model — Architect, Build, Commence, Deliver — means your external visibility programme is operational in weeks, not months. Brand seeds, executive profiles, and domain configurations are onboarded by our team with no internal security resource burden on your side.

Board-Ready Reporting and Metrics

External threat exposure is increasingly a board-level concern. EnCyb produces executive-level dashboards, threat summaries, and KPI reporting from ZeroFox data — enabling CISOs to demonstrate programme effectiveness to leadership and demonstrate compliance posture to regulators.

Flexible Engagement Models

Whether your organisation has no existing external threat programme or a mature internal team seeking augmentation, EnCyb scales ZeroFox delivery to match your operational model. Co-managed configurations are available for organisations with internal SOC teams who want visibility into the managed service layer.

EnCyb Service Model: External Threat Management

EnCyb delivers ZeroFox as part of its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service offering — extending SOC coverage to the external attack surface. External threat findings are correlated with internal detections to provide a complete threat picture. Organisations operating in BFSI, Healthcare, and critical infrastructure sectors receive sector-specific context aligned to GCC regional threat intelligence.

EnCyb identifies when a campaign meets the Clause 10.2 materiality criteria (credential harvesting, confirmed financial loss, scale/velocity, paid amplification) and supports production of the CBUAE notification package — with verified channel indicators and documented response actions.

Clause 9 — Third-Party & Outsourcing Requirements

Your LFI Remains Accountable. Choose Your Vendor Accordingly.

The Guidance is explicit: “LFIs remain fully accountable for compliance with all relevant features of the Programme… Non-compliance with this Guidance by a third party will be treated as non-compliance by the LFI itself.” This means that choosing a brand protection vendor is a compliance decision, not just a technology procurement. Your vendor’s SLAs, audit rights, data handling, and incident obligations are your compliance obligations. EnCyb operates as your accountable managed service partner — with documented contracts that satisfy all six provisions of Clause 9.2.

Material Incident Reporting to CBUAE (Clause 10)

When a confirmed impersonation or scam campaign meets the materiality thresholds defined in Clause 10.2 — including credential harvesting, confirmed financial losses, multi-platform propagation, or paid amplification — the LFI must notify the CBUAE at ifpd@cbuae.gov.ae. EnCyb identifies when these thresholds are met within the ZeroFox platform, prepares the required notification content (impacted channels, key indicators, consumer impact assessment, actions taken, and takedown status), and supports the LFI's compliance team in timely regulatory engagement.

Understand where your institution stands against the CBUAE Guidance requirements. EnCyb provides a no-obligation compliance gap assessment.
