[QUOTE="Kyle Fiehler, post: 406"] Discover how cybercriminals find their targets on the dark web: [URL='https://vimeo.com/632353569/31c78ef662'][IMG]https://blog-en.webroot.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/08191027/Screen-Shot-2021-11-08-at-7.09.46-PM-1024x578.png[/IMG][/URL] For the average internet user, the dark web is something you only hear about in news broadcasts talking about the latest cyberattacks.

Afterall, the dark web is where most cybercrimes get their start. [B]The dark web explained[/B] In short, the dark web is a sort of online club where only the members know the ever-changing location. Once a criminal learns the location, they anonymously gain access to sell stolen information and buy illicit items like illegally obtained credit cards. [B]Innovations in the dark web[/B] The dark web isn’t just a marketplace, though. It’s also a gathering area where criminals can recruit each other to help with their next attack. In fact, the rising rates of malware and computer viruses can partially be explained by cyber criminals coming together to pool their talent. They’ve created a new model for cybercrime where criminal specialists sell their talents to the highest bidder.

[B]Protecting yourself and your family[/B] The first step in protecting yourself from criminals in the dark web is to have a plan. The right cybersecurity tools will keep your important financial documents and your most precious memories safe from attack – or even accidental deletion. And while cybercriminals are developing new methods and tools, cybersecurity professionals are innovating as well.
