# Dark web monitoring.

> Dark web monitoring for London businesses. Know when staff credentials or company data leak, and act before they are used.

Canonical: https://cybersecuritylondon.com/dark-web-monitoring


Stolen passwords are traded long before they are used. We watch for your company's email addresses and data in breaches and criminal markets, and tell you when to act.

Covers: Credential alerts, Breach data, Domain monitoring, Clear actions.

## Overview

When another website is breached, your staff's work email addresses and passwords often end up for sale. Attackers then try those details against your email and systems.

Our dark web monitoring service tracks your domains across breach data and criminal sources. When something appears, you get an alert with clear steps, not just a raw data dump.

### A good fit if

- Staff use work email addresses to sign up to other sites
- You have had a phishing or account takeover incident
- You hold valuable client or financial data
- You want early warning rather than finding out too late

## What's included

- **Domain monitoring**: Continuous checks for your company email domains.
- **Credential alerts**: Notification when staff details appear in new breach data.
- **Context**: Where the data came from and how serious it is.
- **Clear actions**: Which accounts to reset and what else to check.
- **Executive watch**: Extra attention on directors and finance staff.
- **Monthly summary**: A short report of exposure over time.

## How it works

1. **Set up**: Register your domains and key people.
2. **Watch**: Continuous monitoring of breach and criminal sources.
3. **Alert**: Validated alerts with context.
4. **Act**: Reset, review and close the exposure.

## What we look for

- **Leaked credentials**: Email and password combinations from third-party breaches.
- **Company data**: Documents or data linked to your business.
- **Impersonation**: Lookalike domains that could be used for phishing.
- **Executive exposure**: Personal details of senior staff that could be used in targeted attacks.

## What affects the cost

- **Response**: Whether we help with account resets and follow-up.

Dark web monitoring is a low monthly fee, and can be bundled with 24/7 monitoring.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is dark web monitoring?

It is a service that searches breach data and criminal marketplaces for information linked to your business, such as staff email addresses and passwords, and alerts you when it appears.

### Can you remove our data from the dark web?

No one can reliably remove data once it is traded. The value is in knowing quickly so you can change passwords and close access before it is misused.

### Is this the same as the free checks in password managers?

Those check individual accounts. A business service watches your whole domain continuously, adds context and tells your team what to do.

### What should we do if our details are found?

Reset the affected passwords, make sure multi-factor authentication is on, and check the account for unusual activity. We guide you through each alert.
