Password Sharing: A conversation starter
Joe, a partner at a VC shares a password with a team of 35 but paid for one seat with PitchBook. This is a violation of the terms of use, poses a security risk, and adds friction to account managers day to day. We implemented an intuitive interface built on a machine learning foundation by finding significant attributes in the user login data that will detect a password-sharing event. The valuable insights on usage data revealed strong correlations between a suspicious session with various types of usage that would help account managers monitor accounts with unusual usage on the platform.
