Data Breach Observatory
Scouring the dark web for leaks of sensitive data
Four in five small businesses have suffered a recent data breach. And a single incident can cost a small firm over $1 million. So why don't we hear more data breach news?
Proton isn’t waiting for breaches to be reported. Instead, we go directly to the dark web, capturing and sharing leaks in real time — and helping small businesses to protect themselves.
