Summary

Hide ▲

Cybersecurity professionals are leveraging Network Detection and Response (NDR) to identify and mitigate dark web threats within enterprise networks. These threats, including ransomware, unauthorized insider activity, and data exfiltration, often hide within everyday network traffic. NDR systems use AI, machine learning, and behavioral analytics to detect suspicious activities by monitoring network traffic in real-time. The process involves understanding the gateways to the dark web, deploying NDR for comprehensive visibility, and detecting and hunting for dark web-related threats. Key steps include baselining network traffic, automating detection of Tor activity, monitoring for I2P and P2P connections, tracking suspicious DNS activity, and monitoring VPN connections. By integrating NDR into their Security Operations Center (SOC) infrastructure, organizations can improve their mean time to detect (MTTD) and respond (MTTR) to cyber threats, enhancing overall cybersecurity posture.
