Dark Web Mentions

Dark Web Mentions refer to detections where one of your configured keywords appears on dark web sources monitored by WhiteIntel. Organizations can define keywords such as brand names, product names, executive names, or any other terms relevant to their risk profile.

Whiteintel continuously monitors a wide range of dark web resources, including:

  • Hacker forums

  • TOR-based marketplaces

  • Cracking communities

  • Leaked database hubs

  • Underground chat platforms

  • Paste sites and anonymous sharing services

When a monitored keyword appears on any of these sources, Whiteintel generates a Dark Web Mention Record, providing:

  • The detected keyword

  • Timestamp of the discovery

  • Source type (forum, marketplace, chat, TOR site)

  • Contextual text surrounding the mention (when available)

  • Link or reference to the original post or resource

Examples of useful keywords include:

  • Organization name: Acme

  • High-value products: Acme Cloud

  • Executive or VIP names: John Doe

  • Internal project names or codewords

  • Supply-chain partner names

Dark Web Mention monitoring allows organizations to:

  • Detect discussions related to targeted attacks

  • Identify leaked internal data or credentials being shared

  • Spot brand impersonation or fraud attempts

  • Track threat actor activity involving the organization

  • Respond early to emerging risks before they escalate

By enabling keyword-based monitoring across dark web ecosystems, Whiteintel provides actionable visibility into threats that may otherwise remain hidden.
