What is a Dark Web API?

A Dark Web API provides programmatic access to real-time data feeds from dark web marketplaces, hacker forums, data breaches, and malware-infected devices. By integrating the Breachsense APIs into your security infrastructure, you can automatically monitor for exposed credentials, stolen data, compromised cards, and emerging threats that could impact your business or customers.

Dark Web APIs eliminate the need for manual dark web monitoring by delivering structured data through secure REST endpoints. Security teams can create automated workflows that instantly detect when sensitive information appears on the dark web. Security workflows can validate compromised credentials against current user databases, and trigger remediation actions like forced password resets or terminate leaked sessions tokens before they’re exploited. Additionally, these APIs can monitor your third-party vendors for potential security incidents like ransomware attacks. Threat actors may compromise your vendor’s systems and subsequently leak your data as part of their ransomware breach. Automating dark web monitoring helps you identify supply chain risks before they impact your organization. Dark web intelligence helps organizations move from being reactive to proactive.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Kind of Stuff is on the Dark Web?

The dark web is a part of the internet that contains both legal and illegal content. It’s accessible only through specialized browsers. While it hosts legitimate resources like privacy-focused social networks and secure communication platforms, it’s also known for illegal marketplaces. These marketplaces traffic in stolen data, credentials, malicious software, black market goods, and attack tools and services. Organizations often monitor the dark web to protect against potential threats and data breaches.

What are APIs?

An API (Application Programming Interface) is an interface that allows applications to communicate with each other. It enables developers to access data without exposing the underlying code. For example, a Dark Web API provides secure, programmatic access to data from dark web sources. This enables businesses to monitor and act on potential threats automatically. APIs make it easier to integrate external services into existing systems, improving functionality and efficiency.
