Spot Cyberattacks Earlier
DarkIQ is your secret weapon, continuously monitoring the dark web for hidden cybercriminal activity—so you don’t have to. Think of us like your automated analyst. Our dark web monitoring tool detects, categorizes, and alerts you to imminent threats so you can take action against cybercriminals before they strike.
What is dark web monitoring?
The dark web is an anonymous part of the internet that is inaccessible through traditional search engines. It is often used by criminals to sell and trade stolen data, such as passwords, credit card numbers, and social security numbers. Using dark web monitoring, it’s possible to automatically scan the dark web to detect and monitor potential threats and vulnerabilities that can compromise an organization’s digital security. Dark web monitoring helps businesses stay one step ahead of cybercriminals and take necessary measures to safeguard their confidential information.
