Darkwave Overview

With Quentin Rhoads

DarkWave is a new technology that leverages currting edge techniques to help your organization solve some of the more challenges aspects of managing the complex realities of securing a large IT footprint. We developed this platform to solve four major challenges that face organization and professionals in the field of cybersecurity today.

  • Talent Shortage - The cybersecurity industry needs more than 3-million qualified workers than are currently available. 
  • Technology Complexity - Currently, companies need to purchase several specialized tools and hire additional staff (who need to be trained on these specialized tools) to manage them.
  • No Ongoing Monitoring - Offensive security assessments are only point-in-time. This leaves companies open to attacks between assessments.
  • Too Expensive - Quality security is extremely expensive to implement and small to medium sized companies are priced out of the market.

With these problems in mind, we created Darkwave. DarkWave seeks to solve several different problems, enhancing the ability for your organization to securely operate IT infrastructure at scale with the assurance that the infrastructure is running securely. DarkWave’s core technology provides the following features:

  • Asset and Content Discovery - The DarkWave system helps to enumerate external assets, services, certificates, resources, third-party exposure, and more...
  • Asset Management and Categorization - Enumerated assets are categorized by what they are running and where they are running it. In addition, our system provides change alerting, new asset alerting, automated categorization of assets, and automated threat and risk categorization.
  • Continuous Vulnerability Scanning and Alerting - DarkWave alerts on misconfigurations, provides best practices scanning techniques, in-depth web application scanning, and on-demand remediation validation scanning.
  • Valuable Reporting and Metrics - All of the data collected is leveraged into actionable insights into assets and risks, trend mapping of vulnerabilities and risks, individual asset threat and risk scoring, and overall client threat and risk scoring.
