Dark Web Monitoring

What solution did you use??

I’m currently looking at the following products

  1. Digital Shadows
  2. Breach Alert (RepKnight)
  3. Onion Scan (Opensource)

Digital Shadows and Breach Alert both seem to scan the dark web and have the ability to search on specific criteria and alert within a few minutes when an alert is triggered.

Digital Shadows had a nice feature flagging domain names which in theory could be used in phishing attacks against your company. For example if the actual domain, but was just purchased.

Digital Shadows goes to flag other interesting information. For example latest vulnerabilities.


This research is to be continued……
