What is the Dark Web and why should I monitor it?
What is the dark web?
The Dark Web is a digital underground contained within the “Deep Web”- a sublayer of the Internet that is hidden from conventional search engines. Search engines like Google, BING and Yahoo only search 0.04% of the indexed or “surface” Internet. The other 99.96% of the Web consists of databases, private academic and government networks, and the Dark Web. The Dark Web is estimated at 550 times larger than the surface Web and growing.
Because you can operate anonymously, the Dark Web is an area of the internet where illegal and illicit activity occur, including data theft and identity theft. When data is breached or stolen via cyber-attacks, it is often made available on the Dark Web for a relatively low cost. It’s not uncommon to purchase somebody’s identify for around £30.
Benefits of a Dark Web Report
Your information provides a very lucrative business opportunity for cybercriminals. This information is used to conduct further criminal activity, such as data breaches of sensitive corporate information, social engineering as well as identity theft of individual employees or targeted cyber-attacks on your organisation. With just a few key personal details and basic technological skills, these criminals could potentially gain access to some of your most important accounts.
Our Dark Web reports will tell you what email addresses, passwords and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is publicly available on your companies email domains on the Dark Web, so you can secure these accounts before they become compromised (if they haven’t been already)!
Purchase a Dark Web Report:
We offer either a one-off report, or a continual monitoring solution which monitors the Dark Web 24/7 to inform you anytime an email address from your domain appears.
