Introduction
Dark web monitoring has become increasingly popular among businesses looking to identify security issues early.
But what does it actually do?
What is Monitored?
Monitoring services look for:
- Leaked credentials
- Exposed email addresses
- Known breach information
- Stolen business data
What It Doesn’t Do
Dark web monitoring does not:
- Stop attacks
- Replace security controls
- Prevent phishing
It simply provides visibility.
Conclusion
Dark web monitoring can provide valuable intelligence but should form part of a broader security strategy.
