Cyber Threat Intelligence
for construction & real estate

Construction groups, project developers and property managers are increasingly in the crosshairs of cybercriminals: project plans, tender documents, credentials for BIM systems and confidential investor data are lucrative targets. Apascope continuously monitors your digital attack surface.

Specific risks in the construction and real estate sector

Industrial espionage

Tender documents, calculations and project plans are valuable to competitors and criminal actors. Darknet traders specifically offer stolen construction data.

BIM and planning data

Building Information Modeling systems contain highly sensitive infrastructure data. Access compromises often go undetected for months.

Complex subcontractor chains

Construction projects involve dozens of subcontractors. Each one is a potential point of entry — and Apascope also monitors their digital security posture.

Phishing at project level

Fake domains imitate clients or public authorities. Apascope detects fake domains and brand imitations early.

What Apascope does for you

Darknet surveillance at project level

Apascope scans criminal forums, paste sites and leak databases daily for data belonging to your company and your ongoing projects. Credentials, email addresses, internal documents.

Fake domain detection

Phishing attacks on construction companies often use fake domains that imitate clients, authorities or suppliers. Apascope detects such domains and warns before employees fall for them.

Subcontractor monitoring

Apascope monitors the digital security posture of your critical subcontractors and planning offices — without their involvement or system integration. Early warning when a partner has been compromised.

Investor and transaction protection

In real estate transactions, confidential due diligence data is a preferred target. Apascope monitors whether relevant data is circulating in criminal circles.

Case Study

Stolen tender documents discovered

The situation: A mid-sized construction company commissions a CIQ360 report. In a criminal forum, Apascope finds internal tender calculations being offered — apparently stolen via a compromised planning partner.

The response: The company identifies the affected partner, blocks shared accesses and informs the client. Forensic analysis reveals: 3 months of undetected access.

The outcome: Further data leaks are prevented. The company introduces Apascope monitoring for all critical project partners.
