NetClean ProActive

NetClean ProActive helps security teams identify and respond to verified human insider risk indicators, including indicators associated with CSAM and TVEC. It offers three service models: Threat Detection, Threat Analysis, and Threat Feed. Threat Detection provides managed endpoint monitoring and high-confidence alerts with forensic-grade context. Teams can store alerts in ProActive Alert Vault, send them to existing security platforms through a webhook, or use both options. The Vault is described as encrypted, with customer-controlled encryption. Threat Analysis checks indicators such as file hashes against verified intelligence and returns a match or no-match result. The ProActive Web Threat List supplies continuously updated, verified high-risk domains and URLs associated with CSAM and TVEC. Endpoint file screening uses cryptographic hash matching against known material classified by trusted external sources. Integrations include APIs, webhooks, and feeds; named Analysis Services connectors include Splunk and DTEX. NetClean says its approach adds precision without surveillance while respecting regulatory and organizational boundaries. It identifies SOC teams, compliance functions, and managed security service providers among its audiences. Pricing is available through contact with NetClean.
