The Dark Web – DarkNet —A Threat to Your Business? 

I did a webcast for ISACA on The Dark Web, DarkNet —A Threat to Your Business?  
The original talk was on  Thursday, 20 April 2017, the talk was 1 hour and is good for 1 CPE

The DarkNet is the World Wide Web content that exists on DarkNet, overlay networks which use the public Internet but require specific anonymizing software, configurations or authorization to access. It’s a secretive place where dissidents can hide their digital tracks, a place where whistleblowers can reach out safely to scoop-seeking media outlets and where you can buy PII and sensitive information. Having an integrated understanding of the DarkNet is important.
During this webinar, you will learn:

  • How the DarkNet works
  • What is Tor and how to set it up
  • How to reduce risks, search and explore the DarkNet
