Three tactics for security providers in the age of Dark Web collaboration 

Dark Web users must be vetted and trusted among other forum members, so an effective provider will know how to navigate Tor Browser, how to utilize forums and how not to appear suspicious as a user (i.e. reading posts but not making posts).

Going Past the Basics of Antivirus Protection

Reputable vendors should also work closely with in-house cyber teams to ensure that there are systems in place to test security through social engineering, which can expose weak links down to the employee level. Providers must create tools to detect exploits and block attacks where they start, going beyond the firewall and past the basics of antivirus protection. By routinely testing environments according to current trends in cybercrime and anticipation of future trends, providers will be able to hone their understanding of weaknesses within individual organizations. organizations.This testing takes the shape of the approaches of bad actors themselves— a simulated attack executed on your computer systems or on-premise security posture, called a pen-test, can hunt for and uncover vulnerabilities. These simulated attack methods can help to identify weak spots in security posture before an organization’s adversaries do. This provides intel on how to block access to phishing domains, preventing unintended compromises from happening in areas where organizations might be particularly susceptible.
