Dark Web ID vs Passguard

Dark Web ID monitors business and personal credentials for exposure across dark-web sources and alerts organizations when it finds compromises. Its round-the-clock human and machine monitoring covers domains, IP addresses, email addresses and other listed credential data. ID Agent says the monitoring uses real-time, analyst-validated data, drawing on sources that include private sites, chat rooms, P2P networks, social media, black-market sites and more than 640,000 botnets. The service is offered as SaaS or through an API, runs on web and API platforms, and does not require additional hardware or software installation. Add-ons cover extra domains, live searches and personal email monitoring for privileged users. Integrations include Kaseya BMS, Autotask, ConnectWise and other listed tools; APIs can connect reports with security operations, alerting and remediation platforms. An Azure Active Directory sync can distinguish active users from former or inactive ones. Pricing is on request. Live Data Search is a demonstration feature, not a substitute for the full results of a standard license.

Passguard is a web and API platform for monitoring infostealer activity connected to company domains and other verified assets. It looks for infected devices and stolen sessions on criminal marketplaces, then checks whether stolen access is still active; the company says it revokes active access before it can be abused. The platform presents infections, traces, target lists, cracked passwords, breaches and leaks, with alerts and reports for investigations. Monitoring begins after assets are verified, with no agent installation or access to customer systems required, according to Passguard. Its REST API offers thirteen endpoints per domain for SIEM, SOAR or product integrations, and a mock server provides synthetic data for development without a key. Passguard says customer data is hosted in the European Union on European infrastructure, it is GDPR compliant, and it never pays cybercriminals for data; ISO 27001 certification is in progress. There is no free plan, but a quick scan is available without signup and a team-led proof of concept can use a customer's assets. The Essential plan costs €250 a month on an annual contract, excluding VAT. API access is listed at €1,500 a month.
