The dark web is a vital part of the cybercrime underground, home to fraud and cyber threats that can go unnoticed by security teams. Threat actors leverage the anonymous nature of the dark web to cause financial and reputational damage to enterprises through compromised credentials, the exploitation of stolen data, threats of physical harm to executives, and covert planning of future attacks. 

Fortra’s PhishLabs proactively monitors the dark web and provides enterprises with expert-curated intelligence to protect against brand threats and compromised credentials.

Transactions conducted on dark web forums and marketplaces provide threat actors the discreet cover they need to plan and execute attacks. Like-minded criminals plan attacks, buy, sell, and solicit resources like stolen credentials, combo lists of logins and banking details. These actions allow them to gain insider access to the systems of targeted organizations as well as steal critical data.
