HHP – Hackers Hack People

The Darkweb is a Big Data goldmine for hackers. You can learn a great deal about your colleagues, friends, neighbors, suppliers, contractors, customers and competitors by monitoring their domains, email addresses, names, infrastructure and more.

You can train your people cybersecurity awareness, teach them internet hygiene, buy all the cybersecurity tech on the market. But hackers are on LinkedIn, monitoring Facebook. Darkweb Predators are hunting for prey and they know people.

Bad Actors also know code. They understand how defensive technology works, as well as how people, companies, employees, contractors think, act and respond.

Strengths, Weaknesses. Opportunities. Threats. Cybersecurity requires a holistic approach from CISOs and the C Suite. A key building block is to run a SWOT analysis of your organization as it appears to hackers. Look at yourself from the outside. This requires involvement from HR, Finance, Operations, Development, Shipping. Tabletop exercises, wargaming – however you want to describe it. Sure, you can get pen testers in, but then it becomes a technical cybersecurity exercise: you want to get the rest of the organization on board.

You’ll be surprised at how much you learn from darknet monitoring, and the more you learn, the easier it gets to think like a hacker. Once your data is exposed, you won’t be able to hide it again, no matter what your advisors say. So best be prepared and get everyone on-side with your cybersecurity darkweb planning.
