Proactive Risk and Data-leak Monitoring for Organizations

Cyber threats no longer originate solely within a company’s own IT infrastructure. Sensitive information, credentials, or internal documents often surface first on darknet marketplaces, in closed forums, or on ransomware leak sites.

RiskWorkers supports organizations with professional darknet monitoring—as a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP)—ensuring that security-relevant information is identified early, assessed, and prioritized.

What is Darknet Monitoring?

Darknet monitoring refers to the continuous surveillance of:

  • Darknet marketplaces
  • Underground forums
  • Ransomware leak sites
  • Initial access broker offerings
  • Telegram channels
  • Database leaks and combo lists

The objective is to identify indicators of compromised data, credentials, or concrete threat activity at an early stage—before they escalate into a real security incident.

Asset-based Monitoring: We Specifically Search for Your Digital Footprint

  • Company and brand names
  • Domains and subdomains
  • Email domains and individual addresses
  • VIP or executive names
  • Phone numbers
  • IP addresses (where relevant)
  • Subsidiaries and affiliated companies
  • Supplier and vendor names
  • User identifiers
  • Social media handles

Data Breach Monitoring: Analysis of Compromised Data Sets

  • Username/password combinations
  • Password hashes
  • Email addresses
  • Personally identifiable information (PII), such as name, date of birth, address
  • Phone numbers
  • Financial information (e. g., credit card or bank details)
  • CRM or customer data
  • Contractual or support-related information

Instead of unfiltered raw data, clients receive a qualified assessment with a clear risk evaluation.

Darknet-specific Threat Indicators

  • Mentions of your brand in underground forums
  • Sale listings of corporate data
  • Announcements of ransomware data releases
  • Listings of compromised access credentials
  • Indications of insider leaks
  • Discussions of known vulnerabilities

Context-based Risk Assessment Instead of Raw Data Reporting

  • Source and platform
  • Date of initial publication
  • Threat actor (where identifiable)
  • Scope of the data set
  • Number of affected accounts
  • Affected data categories
  • Risk and priority classification
  • Indicators of re-uploads or re-publications
