Dark Web Monitoring
Our cyber security solution detects, monitors, and alerts your dark web presence.
Our dark web monitoring involves searching for personal information that has been illegally placed on a part of the internet, that isn't accessible via normal means.
The dark web is a place where people can anonymously sell stolen personal and financial information. Typically, the data is published after a cyberattack against large organisations. These items can include email addresses, usernames, passwords, credit card numbers, bank account information, passwords, and other sensitive data.
The dark web is not only a threat to businesses and individuals, but it is also a major security concern. Dark web monitoring is a critical tool in protecting and alerting you to a data breach.
At CapNet, our dark web monitoring service can alert us that your data has been published on the Dark Web. This enables us to notify you and act accordingly to mitigate the risk.
How does dark web monitoring work?
Dark web monitoring is one of the most sophisticated tools we have. Identifying data leaks and reactively monitoring the dark web could reduce the risk of cybercrime and identity theft. It also raises awareness and notifies you that your data is being sold on the dark web.
Many companies and individuals are becoming victims of cybercrime at an exponential rate. This is resulting in criminals publishing more data breaches and personal data on the dark web.
At CapNet we have developed sophisticated technologies that identify leaked data being sold online. We can scan the dark web and then alert and report on any user data that we find.
What is the dark web?
The dark web is a network of websites that are visible to only a select group of people. The dark web is commonly known as the home to criminal activity, due to its anonymity and its ability to not be tracked by governments and other organisations.
For example, when you enter a search query on Google, you won't see any results from the dark web. This is because it is hidden from general members of the public and allows users to mask their IP address.
Due to its privacy and it's anonymity, criminals can remain hidden when browsing for illegal information.
Many businesses that have become victims of a cyber-attack, or have unknowingly handed information to a cybercriminal, can end up with information such as employee emails, customer data, or bank details on the dark web.
Criminals will sell this information to other criminals, who might use this to conduct online identity theft.
Proactive monitoring can help reduce the risk:
The dark web is a place full of information. Dark web monitoring can help identify any security risks that present themselves. This allows our security team to handle the situation immediately and avoid any damage or information from being sold.
