Digital Shadows Launches Shadow Search

PRESS RELEASE

Digital Shadows has today announced the availability of Shadow Search –- providing security analysts with a search tool to make better, more informed, and faster decisions to protect their organization from cyber threats.

Previously available as a key feature within Digital Shadows core SearchLight, Shadow Search is now available as a subscription-based service on its own for teams who want to self-serve looking for threats from the open, deep, and dark web.

Shadow Search delivers threat insight with context through:

Immediate access: instant access to strategic, tactical and technical threat intelligence via a single intuitive interface.

Extensive coverage: a data repository including curated strategic threat intelligence, exploit and vulnerability information, and raw threat intelligence from the open, deep, and dark web.

Actionable information: accurate results with associated observables, an intuitive interface and full export, allowing analysts to make faster searches and more rapid use of the intelligence they find.

Relevant results: smart filters and a powerful search syntax enable analysts to rapidly focus on the most relevant information.

For the last seven years, Digital Shadows has amassed a collection of historical, evolving and real-time threat intelligence assets, and enabled access to complimentary expert security sources. Shadow Search provides subscribers with access to this data and the ability to better manage their third-party risk, investigate security incidents, monitor trends and enrich threat hunting of client-specific indicators and threat actors jeopardizing their business, brand and reputation.

Alastair Paterson, CEO of Digital Shadows explains: "For the last six months, existing SearchLight customers have been using Shadow Search to ‘self-serve’ and discover for themselves the array of threats on the criminal web that are lined up against them. Threats they have uncovered include malicious domains, compromised data and criminal 'chatter' directed against their organization. Many have also discovered evidence of accidental data loss. Shadow Search empowers organizations to mitigate these threats. Making it available as a standalone product will greatly enhance the breadth of organizations that can take advantage of the unique insight only Digital Shadows can bring to them."

In this digital risk protection evaluation, the report remarked that "Customers extol Digital Shadows for its robust digital risk data and ability to deliver on an aggressive product road map, citing a new queryable deep and dark web search feature as evidence."

Nick Hayes, lead Forrester analyst of the report, wrote: "Digital Shadows keeps getting closer to an all-in-one solution to monitor and mitigate external risk exposure online.
