DarkOwl will be instrumental in two CyberDefenses cyber intelligence service offerings – Deep Insight and Cyber Theft Locator  

DENVER (October 6 ,2020) – DarkOwl LLC and CyberDefenses have inked a deal that helps CyberDefenses’ customers gain insight beyond general threat landscape intelligence reports to cybercriminal activity on the darknet that is directly related to the customer.

“Dark Owl provides a depth and breadth of darknet data that is unique in the industry,” Armando Ordonez, CyberDefenses CEO says. “Our partnership with Dark Owl is instrumental in helping us deliver the customer-specific intelligence that informs highly sophisticated and effective protection against targeted cybercrime.”

DarkOwl will bring its vast database of darknet data to CyberDefenses, which will be significantly influential in two of the company’s offerings; Deep Insight and Cyber Theft Locator.

With Cyber Theft Locator, Dark Owl data is a key addition to CyberDefenses’ cyber intelligence methods that help identify theft devices on point-of-sale payment terminals.  For example, CyberDefenses combines Dark Owl data with proprietary investigative techniques to find hot spots of credit card theft at fueling stations. These discoveries help provide state regulatory entities and law enforcement with the information needed to find skimmer and shimmer theft devices on fueling pumps remotely. This process is faster than manual detection methods which leads to a larger number of device removals, reduces the volume of theft and the likelihood of repeat targeting, and in some cases, can lead to apprehending the criminals.

For the Deep Insight service, Dark Owl provides data that CyberDefenses uses with pattern matching and other investigative techniques to identify cyberattack targeting that can be difficult to discover across distributed environments and the entire supply chain.  Customers can use the findings to apply highly effective defenses and granular controls to defend against the specific threats focused on them.

Mark Turnage, DarkOwl CEO commented, “CyberDefenses has built an extraordinary technology platform, and combined with their investigative methods they are leaders in protecting consumers.  Our breadth and depth of darknet data is a new and we believe critical link in the chain of the protection they offer, and we are proud to partner with them and contribute to their industry-leading suite of services.”

While Healthcare Industry’s Overall Cyber Posture Improved, the Accelerated Use of Telehealth During COVID-19 Pandemic Increased Cybersecurity Risk

New York – September 10, 2020 – SecurityScorecard, the global leader in security ratings, and DarkOwl LLC, a leading dark web research company, today jointly released the “Listening to Patient Data Security: Healthcare Industry and Telehealth Cybersecurity Risks Report”. The research found that while COVID-19 has proven the healthcare industry’s overall resilience, it has also increased its cybersecurity risk with new and emerging threats. The rapid adoption and onboarding of telehealth vendors led to a significantly increased digital footprint and attack surface, leaving both provider and patient data at risk.

According to a brief from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, at the height of the pandemic, the number of telehealth primary care visits increased 350-fold from pre-pandemic levels. SecurityScorecard and DarkOwl focused the 2020 healthcare report on reviewing the 148 most-used telehealth vendors according to Becker’s Hospital Review. The report indicates that telehealth providers have experienced a nearly exponential increase in targeted attacks as popularity skyrocketed, including a 30% increase of cybersecurity findings per domain, notably:

–             117% increase in IP reputation security alerts

●        Malware infections — as part of successful phishing attempts and other attack vectors — ultimately cause IP reputation finding issues

–             65% increase in patching cadence findings

●        Patching cadence is the regularity of installing security patches and is often one of the primary security policies that protect data

–             56% increase in endpoint security findings

●        Exploited vulnerabilities in endpoint security enable data theft

–             16% increase in application security findings

●        Patients connect with telehealth providers using web-based applications including structured and unstructured data

–             42% increase in FTP issues

●        FTP is an insecure network protocol that enables information to travel between a client and a server on a network

–             27% increase in RDP issues

●        RDP is a protocol that allows for remote connections, which has seen increased usage since the widespread adoption of remote work

Additionally, DarkOwl’s research showed a noticeable increase in mentions of major healthcare and telehealth companies across the dark web since February 2020. There was evidence of prolific and emerging threat actors selling electronic patient healthcare data, malware toolkits that specifically target telehealth technologies, and strains of ransomware that are uniquely configured to take down healthcare IT infrastructure.

Over the past four years, SecurityScorecard has reported on the cybersecurity struggles the healthcare industry faces. In this year’s report, SecurityScorecard and DarkOwl looked at over one million organizations — over 30,000 in healthcare alone — from September 2019 to April 2020 and analyzed terabytes of information to assess risk across 10 factors.

The healthcare industry, despite new risks from telehealth vendors, slightly improved its security posture compared to 2019. The industry moved to 9th place out of 18 reviewed industries (up from 10th in 2019.) This is heartening, especially as the industry has been overwhelmed by an influx of patients, limited resources, rationing, and other challenges due to COVID-19.

“While telehealth is an integral part of maintaining social distancing and providing patient care, it has also increased healthcare providers’ digital footprint and attack surface, which we see with the increase of findings per telehealth domain, and in factors like endpoint security” said Sam Kassoumeh, COO and co-founder of SecurityScorecard. “It’s an indicator that healthcare organizations should continue to keep a focus on cyber resilience.”

Mark Turnage, CEO of DarkOwl adds, “Since the onset of the pandemic, cybercriminals are entering the healthcare data selling space which ultimately leads to new risks facing healthcare organizations and their IT supply stream. Threat protection teams must remain one step ahead of potential attackers, especially during this critical time.”

DarkOwl Brings World’s Largest Database of Darknet Content to King & Union Avalon Cyber Analysis Platform Customers

Denver, CO – WEBWIRE – Thursday, June 25, 2020DarkOwl LLC, the Denver-based darknet big data cybersecurity company and King & Union, creator of the Avalon Cyber Analysis Platform, today announced a strategic partnership. DarkOwl will provide King & Union Avalon clients with access to DarkOwl Vision API, the world’s largest database of darknet content.

The partnership pairs DarkOwl’s extensive darknet data with King & Union Avalon’s enrichment user interface and easy visualization of data sets, enabling swift, accurate, and efficient company exposure, fraud, and actor attribution research. Avalon enhances the DarkOwl experience by streamlining queries into simple use case-based query calls and allows investigators to enrich the data using additional data sources, collaborate with others, draft context-specific reports, and tie finished data directly back into the security stack for immediate action.

Time is of the essence when trying to perform actor attribution. Investigators, including law enforcement and corporate intelligence analysts, can perform deep & dark web (DDW) research using DarkOwl Vision API and quickly unify, visualize, and enrich threat intelligence in a single workspace with Avalon to better understand data relationships.

Analysts are given the tools to find compromised sensitive data, conduct corporate exposure searches, and locate or identify threat actors through DarkOwl vision data, reducing the time to post-breach response. Avalon’s ability to preserve and reference past investigations can also aid the identification of repeat actors as analysts build upon their existing library of knowledge.

“What King & Union has done is remarkable; they have centralized a wide range of data sources on one integrated platform which provides limited time and fractional data access to their clients who may need this data only for discrete periods of time,” said DarkOwl CEO, Mark Turnage.

“We are thrilled to embark on this unique partnership where we will integrate our DarkOwl data into their platform.”“King & Union strives to provide security analysts with the high-quality threat intelligence, tools, and collaboration they need and bring them together in a single, integrated platform to help make their lives easier,” said John Cassidy, CEO, and Co-Founder, King & Union. “Our integration with DarkOwl will enhance analysts’ access to darknet content, providing the depth of threat intelligence they need for accurate, thorough investigations.”

There is much to be done regarding monitoring for cyber risk in the insurance industry, particularly in the darknet, and we make a powerful team with Arceo.”

“So much emphasis is put on checking the security posture on an enterprise, but a company’s exposure on the darknet is critical to understanding how well this posture has held up against criminal attackers. DarkOwl has been a great source of intelligence and highly flexible in integrating their product into a solution that can better serve our clients,” shares Dr. Ann Irvine, Head of Data Science at Arceo.

The Arceo platform provides all insurance stakeholders with a common framework powered by global cyber threat intelligence, state-of-the-art technical assessment, and advanced insurance analytics.

By empowering its customers to have eyes on the darknet, DarkOwl enables organizations to fully understand their security posture, detect potential breaches, mitigate them quickly, and investigate even the furthest and most obscure reaches of the internet.

Darknet data specialist DarkOwl draws on BlueVoyant’s deep expertise to strengthen its security posture and protect critical assets and users

New York, NY (April 30th, 2020) – BlueVoyant, a global expert-driven cybersecurity services company, today announced that it has been selected by DarkOwl, providers of the world’s largest index of DarkNet content, to deliver a tailored and comprehensive Managed Security Service. BlueVoyant will provide its advanced Managed Detection and Response (MDR+) capabilities, including support from its team of skilled intelligence analysts and security experts, to protect endpoints, detect intrusion and defend against the latest and most sophisticated security threats.

DarkOwl enables organizations to safely search the world’s largest dataset of darknet content. Its Vision API enables its data to be directly integrated into a client’s native platforms, while its DarkINT risk scores simplify risk management based on the organization’s darknet footprint. Monitoring and alerting enable clients to quickly discover breached material appearing on the darknet.

As an expert in analyzing the cyber threat landscape, DarkOwl was looking for a security solution that goes beyond the current patchwork of point products and is instead modeled directly on the company’s unique data and activities, as Mark Turnage, CEO of DarkOwl, explains: “The threat landscape continues outpacing threat defense and it has become obvious that the existing model for protecting critical assets, end-users and endpoints is flawed. Instead of choosing yet another partial solution that can only determine threat and compromise based on triggered rulesets or known patterns of behavior, we chose BlueVoyant’s MDR+ approach to get ahead of the curve. By modeling its service on our data and the output of our activities BlueVoyant is able to detect issues and compromise much earlier.”

BlueVoyant’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR+) provides real-time and customized threat response and remediation – terminating malicious processes, isolating devices, and manually preventing persistence and lateral movement associated with sophisticated attacks. BlueVoyant incorporates client-driven rules of engagement (ROE) enabling immediate, decisive action to stop threats that could cripple a network versus non-critical events where a lower-tiered response may be appropriate. The service combines an expert team, comprehensive threat data analytics, and advanced technology solutions to deliver remote endpoint monitoring and protection, threat detection, and incident remediation. BlueVoyant MDR+ includes:

● 24/7/365 detection and response support by expert analysts with over 200 years of collective Security Operations and Threat Hunting experience who operate across multiple global locations

● Detection and blocking of malware, ransomware, zero-days, non-malware and file-less attacks

● Remote endpoint incident investigation and remediation led by BlueVoyant’s security operations specialists.

Support from highly skilled cybersecurity professionals to lift the burden from in-house teams was a key factor in DarkOwl’s decision to select BlueVoyant, as Mark Turnage explains: “Running this program ourselves is not a possibility and would deplete far too many resources from our core business, DarkNet Intelligence. We appreciate BlueVoyant’s ongoing model and execution of selecting and hiring the best-of-breed and most experienced staff.”

Mark continues: “DarkOwl was looking for best-in-class managed Endpoint Security and Threat/Compromise Detection and Response capabilities and found them in BlueVoyant. We see their services as remarkably robust and industry leading, and it made sense for DarkOwl to go with the best in the business.”

Jim Rosenthal, CEO, BlueVoyant comments: “The fast pace and complex evolution of the cyber threat landscape makes it hard for under-pressure internal teams to stay current with every emerging threat. The unrivalled knowledge and experience of our team, combined with our advanced technology and proprietary datasets, provides deep expertise and oversight that means clients like DarkOwl can be confident that their business is protected.”
