"Understanding Adversaries through Dark Web Intelligence"

According to Searchlight Cyber, 93 percent of CISOs are concerned about dark web threats, and around 72 percent say that intelligence on cybercriminals is "critical" to defending their company and enhancing cybersecurity. In addition, according to the report's findings, most CISOs use threat intelligence to handle security concerns, and 79 percent are currently collecting data from the dark web. Yet, the research indicates that even among those that are already gathering dark web data, there is more work to be done in overcoming some of the most significant cybersecurity challenges. For example, while 71 percent of CISOs wanted to determine whether their suppliers are being targeted on the dark web, just 32 percent of those who collect dark web data use it to monitor supply chain attacks. This article continues to discuss key findings from Searchlight Cyber's report regarding the adoption and use of dark web intelligence.
