With thousands of threats lurking on the dark web, knowing when your business is at risk of attack is a significant challenge. The privacy and anonymity of the dark web makes it an attractive destination for cybercriminals, whether they are looking to trade in stolen credentials, personal information, malware or illicit goods.
Dark web monitoring, a form of digital risk protection, allows organisations to keep a continuous eye on the deep and dark web, including file sharing networks, forums and other communications channels. This helps to increase cyber maturity and aids in the early detection of cyber-attacks. Dark web monitoring also provides valuable insight into adversary tradecraft and vital intelligence to defend against future attacks.
Dark web monitoring is the process of searching for and keeping track of information relating to an organisation’s potential exposures on the deep and dark web. Effective digital risk protection and dark web monitoring services are not one-off exercises, but a continuous process in which a unique set of search criteria are created and regularly updated to defend an organisation’s assets and reputation.
The benefits of dark web monitoring services include:
