Hackers target employees, moving from one machine to the next toward their goal. But after spearphishing, what if they can't impersonate people and migrate between computers? Keystrike ensures that commands made by the employee were physically made on their computer, not by a remote attacker. It's MFA but without any friction! Our patented technology traps even the most sophisticated attackers on a workstation without letting them advance their goals. Let us know if you'd like a demo!
