Learn how Signal expanded its OSINT coverage with Webz.io’s structured web data feeds covering millions of sources from across the open and dark web
Monitoring the dark web comes with a number of challenges. The first is that dark web sites, such as forums, marketplaces and forum discussions aren’t indexed like websites in the open web. Existing dark web search engines are not as nearly as advanced and effective in delivering sufficient results to queries, like Google is, for example, on the open web.
Another challenge is that many sources, like dark web marketplaces, often change their domain to evade the authorities. Finally, closed communities and password-protected data may require payment for access or otherwise have limited access.
These challenges make dark web data notoriously hard to access and effectively monitor. With access to Webz.io’s structured web data feeds, which include our data breach detection service, Signal can now overcome these obstacles and deliver its customers high-quality, relevant dark web data coverage.
“By constantly expanding our data sources with partners like Webz.io we are able to offer effective OSINT solutions to a wide variety of verticals with an ever-expanding breadth of applications,” says Wayne Forgesson, CEO of Signal Corp.
