Digital Shadows, an industry leader in digital risk management, has announced comprehensive enhancements of its award-winning SearchLight solution\u2019s Dark Web coverage capabilities.<\/p>\n
It has a focus on scalable data analytics plus human led data collection and contextual interaction to best protect an organisation\u2019s business, brand and reputation.<\/p>\n
With continuous coverage updates added daily, Digital Shadows SearchLight\u2122 has significantly expanded its automated Dark Web collection capabilities, complemented by human data scientist support to monitor, manage and protect organisations against threats associated with forums and marketplaces across the open, deep and dark web.<\/p>\n
Organisations can now easily see many Dark Web incidents, with context, as they happen, wherever they happen. With these enhancements, customers will be quickly notified that they are at risk and intel will be shared with an up to date list of posts in the offending threads with key contextual information on each forum user. Within marketplaces, risky product listings will be flagged and key information will be displayed about the sellers\u2019 reputation.<\/p>\n
When it comes to closed sources on the open, deep and dark web, automated collection alone is insufficient. Digital Shadows recognises it is critical to complement automation with a team of data scientists and intelligence experts who gain access to closed sources, and qualify the data collected to enhance analytic capabilities.<\/p>\n
This gives customers the full breadth and context needed to address the digital risks that are most relevant and impactful to their business. Automation in digital risk management alone is not enough, as it cannot collect everything and can lead to an unmanageable level of false positives.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe threat intelligence component of digital risk management is all about giving organisations the insight to monitor, manage and protect against threats no matter where they are coming from. Vendors that only focus on the Dark Web don\u2019t provide a comprehensive understanding of risk and open their customers up to blindspots,\u201d said Rick Holland, VP Strategy at Digital Shadows.<\/p>\n
\u201c’Defence in Depth’, the popular security mantra, is increasingly giving way to ‘Expense in Depth’ as CISOs struggle to manage the disparate data coming from an overwhelming number of point solutions. Security professionals need comprehensive security solutions that consolidate and provide context across their digital risks without adding additional complexity and costs.\u201d<\/p>\n
