#2 Compromised Credentials
Stolen or reused passwords are a favourite tool for ransomware operators.
HackRisk’s Dark Web Scanning monitors underground forums and breach databases for any mention of your organisation’s credentials.
Where we find exposed usernames, passwords, or tokens, we alert you immediately and guide you through securing affected accounts and enforcing stronger authentication policies

#3 Phishing
Phishing campaigns are getting smarter, more personalised, and better targeted.
Recon Scanning shows you what attackers can learn about your business from public sources - uncovering exposed domains, metadata, and details that could be used in targeted phishing campaigns.
Phishing Simulations are an optional bolt-on to help your team stay sharp by mimicking real-world attacks in a safe, controlled environment.
