How does Dark Web Monitor work?
Dark Web Monitoring is a great tool to prevent the leakage of your passwords. It regularly scans places on the dark web where information is traded and sold, looking for your credentials. If any related websites are compromised and our solution finds your leaked passwords, you will receive an instant alert.
When you sign in to the app you can create a large number of items in your Vaults. You are free to choose any type of data you want to keep: passwords, logins, personal IDs, Social Security Numbers, emails, addresses, etc. To learn more about how to store documents safely and securely check out this page.
