Tens of Billions
of Records
and Counting

DARKSIDE is a constantly growing repository with tens of billions of compromised records and other person of interest data collected from the Deep and Dark Web over the past decade.

The data is available via our proprietary User Interface (“UI”), an easy to integrate REST API, and through integrations with leading OSINT platforms, including Maltego, Blackdot Videris, and Falkor. All records are uniquely parsed and structured to allow investigators and analysts to intuitively and efficiently identify critical intelligence.

Use Cases

Investigations

Search across tens of billions of identifiers to unmask threat actors, conduct online threat assessments, and assist in fraud investigations. And with our integration with Maltego, investigators can quickly visualize and pivot on our data to build connection analyses in minutes rather than days.

Dark Web Exposure

Analysts and investigators can use our data to help identify an individual’s complete online footprint by determining the nature of their exposed personally identifiable information, where they have registered accounts, and what information they have posted to those accounts. This information that can be used to guide executive protection priorities, enhance due diligence reports, and conduct cyber security assessments.

Litigation Support

Attorneys and their support teams are able to utilize our data to assist in the identification of witnesses, as well as the vetting of plaintiffs in class action litigation and jurors for voir dire proceedings. Legal clients can also utilize our data for discovery and interrogatory proceedings to validate that they have been provided with a totality of qualifying discoverable material by opposing parties.

Enterprise Threat Intelligence & Third-Party Risk

Security teams and GSOC personnel can leverage our data to understand a company’s exposure on the Dark Web, whether it be breached records involving employees, indications of compromised customers, or vulnerabilities of key executives.

Law Enforcement

Police departments and global law enforcement agencies leverage Darkside to conduct complex criminal investigations. Darkside has proven invaluable in identifying anonymous threat actors and unraveling the physical and online presence of criminals around the world.

National Security

The U.S. Military and Five Eyes intelligence professionals rely on Darkside in large part due to its global reach and uniquely parsed data. It is especially useful for targeting officers and intelligence analysts looking to learn more about the past and present whereabouts of an individual, their affiliations, assets and more.

Private / Corporate Investigations

Darkside was built by and for investigators. Our data is currently used by major consulting firms in the investigations and corporate intelligence space to conduct global due diligence, litigation support investigations, and threat attribution, among many other use cases.

Cybersecurity

Since our founding, District 4 has worked alongside many of the leading cyber consultancies and enterprise security teams to improve their cyber threat intelligence (CTI) capabilities, especially related to offensive security operations, third party risk mitigation, and account takeover (ATO) prevention.

Data Collection

The DISTRICT 4 team leverages years of investigative and cybersecurity experience to collect valuable data sets from the Deep and Dark web on an ongoing basis. Rigorous collection and parsing processes ensure that all meaningful data is extracted from raw files and then indexed and enriched to allow for maximum flexibility and efficiency when conducting queries.

Any investigator knows that sometimes all it takes is a single piece of data to break open a case, which is why we take great care to extract, normalize and merge all meaningful data across an entire compromised database into a single record. Our tens of billions of records include hundreds of billions of unique identifiers that are all searchable multiple ways. And to further extend an analyst’s ability to search, we also crack hashed passwords.
