Searchlight Cyber is a leading platform in the fields of dark web intelligence and attack surface management. It allows organizations to gain visibility into both their external digital footprint and the activities of threat actors within closed networks. By combining advanced technology with years of expertise in cyber intelligence, the platform helps prevent incidents before they cause damage.
The Three Pillars of the Platform
The platform consists of three complementary products that together provide a complete view of the external threat landscape:
- AssetNote provides a solution for Attack Surface Management. The technology continuously monitors an organization's entire external IT environment, identifying assets, domains, and vulnerabilities, and flagging exposures that could pose a risk. Through automated verification and prioritization, security teams receive only truly relevant alerts, increasing Incident Response (IR) efficiency.
- DarkIQ focuses on monitoring the dark web and deep web. The system detects leaked credentials, threat communications, phishing campaigns, and other risks that occur outside the scope of traditional security. By linking to current threat models, organizations can quickly determine which information requires immediate action and which trends point to emerging risks.
- Cerberus serves as an investigation platform for dark web intelligence. It provides access to years of collected data from closed forums, marketplaces, and communication channels. Using powerful search functions and integrated analytical tools, analysts can conduct research into threat actors, ransomware groups, and criminal infrastructures. This makes Cerberus an essential tool for intelligence research and digital forensics.
Integration and Strategic Resilience
Searchlight Cyber serves a wide range of sectors, including financial institutions, government, defense, energy, telecom, and manufacturing. By integrating with existing security solutions—such as SIEM, SOAR, and EDR systems—the platform forms a valuable extension of any modern security architecture.
