How it works
All the pages on the internet are not as easy to access as the your “everyday” pages. Unlike the pages indexed like this one, i.e. which are accessible from a search engine like Google, 90% of the existing pages are not indexed.
There are two pages “hidden” from the internet users:
On these pages, there are signs that a hacking campaign is looming over your company, or that a coworker’s unencrypted data is made available. In this situation, you’d better surround yourself with the best to prevent an attack from happening.
Cyber Vigilance is a solution powered by an artificial intelligence created by HTTPCS. Regarding users data, the HTTPCS "Virtual Agents" will crawl the data leaks they have access to. For example, if the user has created an account on a website with his professional email address and that website is being hacked, they will be immediately notified.
Once the robots found a compromised element for your company, an alert is immediately sent to Cyber Vigilance users. HTTPCS collects over 5 million pieces of data on a daily basis.
Digital Shadow web monitoring solution is based on a search engine, so the users can freely search key words to find some data on the Dark Web. These key words can be monitored, and relevant news linked to the Dark Web are accessible.
The Digital Shadow tool is powerful, but it has two weaknesses:
How it works
How it works
Reported data
Cyber Vigilance reports any kind of data. You just have to define it as a “target”, and at the slightest appearance, a notification will be sent to you.
The targets are gathered in two categories: the “Infra” and “Data” targets.
The “Infra” events are about your company, like someone mentioning your brand, a malicious use or even a hacking or “doxing” campaign.
The “Data” events are about a data leak, like professional email addresses, password leaks and other personal data.
Digital Shadow, working as an autonomous search engine, also reports any kind of data: from a simple quote about your company on malicious forums to your coworker’s passwords, for instance.
This data monitoring can be performed by target system, or can be found by the user who entered the key words in the Digital Shadow search engine.

Alerts
In Dark Web and Deep Web monitoring solutions, the alerts can warn the users that their data is in jeopardy. Warning the users is part of the monitoring process, and in this context, promptness is essential to limit the damage.
Cyber Vigilance works on a model based on promptness, by sending its alerts by email, SMS, or by API integration. They are immediately sent and unlimited as for the number of alerts or recipients. In order to create statistics and get a long-term vision about your cybersecurity, the notification history is kept indefinitely on your HTTPCS user console.
The Digital Shadow alert can be sent by email, directly from the interface of the solution, or through integration via an API with team management tools. It’s important to add that Digital Shadow does not send SMS alerts, which undeniably leads to a lack of reactivity.

Solution specificities
If Cyber Vigilance and Digital Shadow are both solutions that can monitor all the web layers, they have their own distinctive features.
Cyber Vigilance is at the heart of the HTTPCS cybersecurity solution and can benefit from its compatibility with the three other HTTPCS modules:
These solutions are accessible from the user console, with no need for various integrations. With HTTPCS, your cybersecurity is centralized and available in just a few clicks.
Intuitive and user-friendly, this solution gives you a chance to precisely oversee the hacking activities happening around the world (latest news, latest campaigns)
The first distinctive feature of Digital Shadow is its autonomous search engine that crawls the Dark Web and Deep Web, looking for any kind of information by entering specific key words. However, it still raises moral and ethical issues.
Its second specific feature is its dashboard that provides many news about the Dark Web and Deep Web world. A community of hackers, ethical or not, is very active around Digital Shadow.

Pricing
Pricing
These two solutions are based on a very different economic model.
For a subscription without commitment, with 5 targets of your choice to monitor, the Cyber Vigilance solution costs $ 395 / month ($ 89). By choosing the same plan with a one-year commitment, the price is only
$ 325 / month ($ 73).
With a price starting from 52 992 € / year ($ 60 000) for 5 users and only one brand monitored, the Digital Shadow offer is clearly more expansive than the Cyber Vigilance one. You have to take into account that you need a full-time employee to deal with the tool.
