Threat Hunting on the Dark Web › Searchlight Cyber

Gain Visibility Into The Dark Web

Cybercriminals use dark web marketplaces and forums to plan their attacks, with the belief that they are out of reach of cybersecurity teams. Searchlight Cyber allows threat hunters to turn the tables, with access to the most comprehensive dataset of dark web sources.

Identify threats earlier in the Cyber Kill Chain

The dark web gives you visibility into the “pre-attack” activity of cybercriminals, as they undertake their reconnaissance and resource development on marketplaces, forums, and hidden chats. This gives you the advantage of identifying threats earlier: campaigns before they are launched, malware before it hits your network, and vulnerabilities before they are CVEs.

Investigate on The Dark Web

Identify threat actors and groups that are targeting your industry, have already attacked your peers, and who you need to investigate in order to protect your business.
