Lab 1, the leading AI, Exposed Data Intelligence platform, launches “File Previews”, an industry-first capability for businesses to safely preview exposed files breached through direct cyberattacks, supplier breaches, employee and contractor errors, cloud misconfigurations and more. 

Lab 1 uses sophisticated AI agents to scrape breached datasets from the surface, deep, and dark web, extracting and analyzing file contents, to rapidly identify an organization’s exposure. Files are categorized and summarized before matching to the organization based on the data discovered, including domains, emails, IPs, IBANs, US Social Security Numbers, customer data and more. The Lab 1 Platform alerts customers to files in breached datasets that contain information that represents a potential risk to their business.

File Previews enables companies to safely preview files that have been exposed, within the security of the Lab 1 Platform. It builds on its AI summary feature, which leverages an LLM to provide an overview of what company information is exposed within the document, whether a statement, a database of customer details, an email exchange, or an invoice revealing a supplier relationship.

Together, this Exposed Data Intelligence (EDI) enables organizations to review and assess every relevant file in a breach, taking a content-aware response to information leaked into the public domain, where the nature of what is leaked and not just how much information, is a determinant of damage and regulatory exposure.

Robin Brattel, Co-founder and CEO, Lab 1 said: “Until now, businesses that wanted to find out whether their information is in exposed data sets would have to take on the security risks of downloading files to manually analyze or pay a Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) company to conduct the assessment, both were highly manual, time consuming and expensive. The launch of File Previews means that companies can not only be notified of their exposure in breaches they weren’t aware of, but they can also safely see the exposed files for themselves. This, in turn, means a faster, more accurate risk assessment takes place and enables them to take steps to mitigate the risk.”

The Lab 1 platform dramatically cuts down the time to assess a breached dataset for exposure and understand the associated risks, whether security, commercial, or compliance. Cutting out the need for a middleman CTI firm, businesses can assess exposure at scale and safely see what private information has entered the public domain. 

Commonly extracted data includes PII relating to customers, suppliers, and employees, including names, email addresses, US social security numbers, and passport details. As well as more technical information, such as IPv4 Addresses, IPv6 Addresses, CVE Code, IBANs, Bank Account Numbers, HTTP Basic Auth URLs, AWS S3 File Paths and Virtual Hosts, RSA and SSH Private Keys, and more.
