“Our data is obtained from a large variety of proprietary and non-proprietary sources, including marketplaces, forums, and social media platforms. We cover several types of entities, including illicit exchanges and service providers, as well as ransomware, and illicit markets (narcotics, fraud, and child abuse material) to name but a few. Before being indexed in our platform, our data is subject to a rigorous screening process to ensure volumes of false positives are kept to a minimum.”
