Dark web monitoring
Dark web monitoring tracks leaked passwords, data and documents belonging to a company or its executives on illicit forums and markets.
Why it matters
A leaked staff password or customer list can be for sale weeks before an attack; early detection buys time to reset credentials and inform customers.
How
Regular scanning of breach databases and known forums for your domains and addresses, with verification of findings.
Frequently asked questions
Can leaked data be deleted from the dark web?
Usually not; the job is to make it useless (change passwords, reissue cards) and close the source.
