Cyber Threat Intelligence: Illuminating the Deep, Dark Cybercriminal Underground
Cyber threat intelligence plays a crucial role in understanding and mitigating risks in the cybercriminal underground. The deep and dark web serves as a platform for threat actors to exchange information and services, making it essential for organizations to have access to dark web threat intelligence. Cybersixgill’s annual State of the Underground report provides valuable insights into the tactics and technologies used by threat actors, shedding light on trends observed within the cybercriminal underground.
Accessing the dark web for threat intelligence can be challenging, as it requires navigating through unindexed sites. Cybersixgill offers guided tours of the dark web, providing an uncensored view of the current cybercrime landscape and trends. By understanding the mindset of hackers and the tools they use, organizations can better prepare for potential cyberattacks.
One of the key findings in Cybersixgill’s research is the presence of Wholesale Access Markets (WAMs), which serve as a feeding ground for ransomware attacks. By purchasing access to compromised endpoints from WAMs, threat actors can establish a foothold within a network, making it easier to launch ransomware attacks.
Overall, Cybersixgill’s deep, dark web cyber threat intelligence provides organizations with the knowledge and tools needed to stay ahead of evolving cyber threats. To learn more about Cybersixgill’s offerings, contact them to schedule a demo.
