Darknet Intelligence - Risk Analysis by IT Experts
The Darknet not only enables anonymous communication but also illegal transactions - with your company data. Our Red Team experts help you to obtain an effective demonstration of the tangible risk, in order to plan future security initiatives.
Definition and Explanation
OSINT Methods for Darknet Assessment
In the darknet, stolen access data, credit card numbers, malware, ransomware, and even hacker services are in circulation around the clock. Companies run the risk of their sensitive data ending up there after a cyber attack, being traded and misused for further attacks.
To prevent this misuse, companies need special early warning systems that reliably detect potential data loss. We recommend every company to use a Darknet Intelligence Service to minimize attacks from these threat sources. The goal of Darknet Intelligence is to improve IT risk management and increase cyber security for your company.

OSINT Methods
What is Darknet Intelligence?
Darknet Intelligence (DARKINT) refers to the systematic monitoring and analysis of activities in the darknet to identify threats to businesses. The darknet - an encrypted part of the internet - serves cybercriminals as a marketplace for stolen data, malware, and attack services. Darknet Intelligence searches forums, marketplaces, and messenger services like Telegram for corporate data to proactively minimize risks.
Proactive instead of reactive
Why is Darknet Intelligence indispensable for businesses?
The threat from the darknet is real and omnipresent, but controllable. Investments in darknet security are not just a cost factor, but a strategic necessity - especially in times of increasing cyber attacks.
- Early Warning System
74% of all cyber attacks use stolen access data from the darknet.
- Protection Against Ransomware
Criminals trade malware like LockBit or BlackCat in the darknet - often as "Ransomware-as-a-Service".
- Reputation Protection
Data leaks can permanently destroy the trust of customers and partners.
- Compliance
The GDPR requires reporting of data breaches within 72 hours - Darknet Intelligence helps to detect violations faster.
- Minimize costs
Avoid costly incident response measures and fines.
Darknet Intelligence for Enhanced IT Security
Can companies actually monitor the Darknet or Deep Web themselves?
Searching for company information on your own in the darknet is very complicated and not feasible for the layman. A Darknet Intelligence provider professionally and comprehensively searches darknet forums, without taking high risks. Our IT experts use the latest methods to generate and analyze information from the darknet or deep web.
- We analyze databases for access data related to domains.
- All data sets are processed with our proven query algorithms for comprehensive results.
- We examine data sets for security issues, e.g. the mother's maiden name in relation to the respective individuals.

- Cloud Security
During a Cloud-Pentest, a cloud infrastructure is analyzed and evaluated. The various configurations in the form of identity and user rights differ greatly from traditional infrastructure.
- Phishing Simulation
A spear-phishing simulation is used to enhance the detection capabilities of your employees. We help you sensitize your staff, thus strengthening the last line of defense.
- Static Code Analysis
Static code analysis, also known as source code analysis, is typically conducted as part of a code review and takes place during the implementation phase of a Security Development Lifecycle (SDL).
- Red Teaming
Red Teaming is used to test an organization's detection and response capabilities. Our Red Team attempts to access sensitive information in every conceivable way and as undetected as possible.
