Where Hudson Rock and SpyCloud differ on infostealer intelligence, biggest gap first.
H Hudson Rock was started by former members of IDF Unit 8200 and works on one problem only: infostealer infections. Its Cavalier platform shows what each infected computer leaked, from credentials and cookies to the malware path and antivirus in place, and splits a company's exposure into employees, users, third parties and suppliers. It is also the research team behind InfoStealers.
S SpyCloud, based in Austin, recaptures data from breaches, infostealer malware, phishing kits and combolists and packages it into separate products for workforce, consumer, supply-chain and investigation use. Stolen session cookies and post-infection remediation are a central theme across the line-up.

Scores are Hudson Rock's editorial opinion of each vendor's infostealer intelligence, based on public information (websites, documentation and published research) as of October 12, 2026. Only infostealer-related capabilities are assessed, not a vendor's overall quality or other products. Field averages, peer matches and comparisons are calculated from those scores.
This is general information, not a recommendation to buy or avoid any product, and it may be out of date: confirm details with each vendor. Product names and logos belong to their owners and are used only to identify them. Vendors can request a correction through Hudson Rock's contact page.
