Dark Web Monitoring
Know when company credentials appear where they shouldn’t.
Dark web monitoring provides an early warning when monitored business information is found in exposed data, giving you the opportunity to investigate and act sooner.
Is this the right service?
Useful when exposed information could become an open door.
Credentials can be exposed through phishing, malware, reused passwords or a breach involving another service. The first sign may appear outside your own systems.
You rely heavily on email and cloud accounts
Gain another layer of visibility around identities that could provide access to important business systems.
Your people use many online services
Identify when business email addresses or credentials may have been exposed through a third party.
You want earlier warning of account risk
Use relevant alerts to prompt password changes, access reviews and further investigation before an exposed account is abused.
What we monitor
Focused on information connected to your organisation.
The monitoring scope is agreed around your domains, accounts and other relevant identifiers. Alerts are reviewed in context rather than treated as proof of an active breach.
Company domains
Monitor for exposed information associated with the domains your organisation owns and uses.
Business email addresses
Identify monitored addresses that appear within known exposed or compromised data.
Credentials and passwords
Receive warning where account details or password information may have been made available.
Relevant company information
Extend monitoring to suitable organisation-specific terms or identifiers where they would provide useful context.
An alert is a starting point, not a conclusion.
We help establish what has appeared, whether it is current and what practical action is proportionate.
How it works
Monitor quietly. Act when something matters.
The service adds useful visibility without expecting your team to interpret every piece of exposed data alone.
Define
Agree the domains, accounts and identifiers that are relevant to your organisation.
Monitor
Check relevant sources for signs that monitored information has appeared in exposed data.
Review
Assess the alert in context, including the information found, its age and the account involved.
Respond
Take proportionate action to secure access, check for misuse and reduce the chance of recurrence.
After an alert
Turn early warning into sensible action.
Finding exposed information matters only if it leads to the right response.
Validate the account and exposure
Confirm whether the information relates to a current user, service or password.
Secure access
Reset affected credentials, revoke active sessions and strengthen multi-factor authentication where needed.
Check for suspicious activity
Review available account, email and security logs for signs the exposed information has been used.
Reduce repeat risk
Address password reuse, account controls or wider security gaps highlighted by the alert.
Useful to know
What dark web monitoring can and cannot do.
Does an alert mean we have been breached?
Not necessarily. Information may come from an old incident, password reuse or a breach involving another service. The alert tells us what needs to be checked.
Can exposed information always be removed?
No. Once information has been copied or shared, removal may not be realistic. The priority is to make exposed credentials unusable and check whether they have been abused.
Does monitoring prevent accounts being compromised?
Monitoring is an early-warning control, not a replacement for strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, email security and managed detection.
Can it be part of a wider managed service?
Yes. It works particularly well alongside Microsoft 365 security, endpoint protection, vulnerability management and incident response support.
