The Importance of Monitoring the Dark Web

Let’s ask a question.  If you don’t know something is a problem, how can you take action?

One of the biggest problems businesses are facing is stolen credentials from data breaches.  These credentials are sold on the dark web and are used to gain access to business networks to steal data, deploy malware, or encrypt and hold the data hostage.

Tools like Dark Web Monitoring enables you to gain awareness and take action when you’re notified that your information has been found on the dark web.

For instance, if you learn that your email address or an account number has been found on the dark web, you can update the password you use to log into that account to a new, unique, and complex password. This will help you avoid the damage and hassle of a data breach, and take necessary action to protect your business, staff, clients, and more from a potential attack.
