What is the Dark Web?

A section of the internet intentionally hidden and inaccessible through standard browsers, the Dark Web is where cybercriminals often buy and sell illicit goods and services, including stolen personal data.

Understanding the Dark Web Threat Landscape

Recent UK government reports show that 39% of UK businesses suffered cyber-attack in 2022 and in the US over 422 million individuals were affected in the same year by data compromises. These numbers underscore the very real threat of data breaches and the likelihood of sensitive information ending up on the Dark Web. Major breaches like the 2021 LinkedIn incident, where data of nearly 500 million users ended up on a hacker forum, highlight the risk and scale of such events.

Once data is on the Dark Web, it can lead to devastating consequences for businesses, including financial loss, damage to reputation, regulatory penalties, and loss of customer trust. This underscores the necessity for businesses to take proactive measures to safeguard their sensitive data.
