What Is The Dark Web...And Is Your Company On Their List?
The Dark Web is a term we are hearing more and more, but like many buzzwords, not everyone knows what it means. The Dark Web consists of regular websites that use the public internet highway but require special software to access. It is not indexed by search engines, such as Google like other websites, to ensure anonymity. Within these sites stolen data is traded, sold and used for financial, political or personal gain. Due to its anonymity and secrecy, the dark web is incredibly popular with people who have malicious intent. The dark web is home to many criminal activities and impacts businesses around the world.
What if every one of your employee’s email address and password was exposed on the Dark Web making it easy to steal company data and you don’t even know it?
All over the world, people are using the dark web to sell and buy drugs and counterfeit items, exchange stock market information, commit terrorism, fraud, and sell or buy stolen credentials.
When the companies like JP Morgan, Target, LinkedIn and Home Depot were breached, that customer information, went directly to the dark web and was sold.
