Protect Your Family

Monitoring the Dark Web dramatically reduces your risk of identity theft by letting you know sooner if your personal information is compromised, and in turn enabling prevention or quick resolution of an identity theft incident. In addition to Dark Web Monitoring, you also have identity protection recovery services to help alleviate some of the financial burden of identity theft and guide you through the often confusing and difficult process. Unfortunately, no identity protection tool can prevent identity theft altogether.

This activity is illegal in the United States, but other countries do not necessarily have the same laws as related to cybercrime. United States regulatory agencies have no jurisdiction to prosecute fraudsters acting on websites and chat rooms located in other countries.

Even if only some of your personal information has been detected by the Dark Web, it is recommended that you contact the appropriate institution to have your account information changed or change your account information yourself if possible - like updating the password to your email account. It is safe to assume that if some of your information is compromised, all of it is. You may also want to review a copy of your credit report to ensure that all the information that appears there is familiar to you.

Your Dark Web service tracks Internet activity for signs that the personal information you’ve asked us to monitor is being traded and/or sold online. This alert means that our surveillance technology has discovered information on the Internet that is a match to your monitored identity elements.

Your first Dark Web report includes data from the previous 8 years. This means that Dark Web searches the prior 8 years of records it has collected for a match to the personal information you are monitoring.

This data comes from Internet forums and websites, web pages, IRC channels, refined PII search engine queries, Twitter feeds, P2P sources, hidden and anonymous web services, malware samples, botnets, and torrent sources.

Your first Non-Credit Loan Monitoring report includes data from the past 2 years.

Your Sex Offender Monitoring report is updated monthly. If there is a change in the data returned at this time, you will receive an alert.

False matches in this report can occur as a result of an individual having the same name and/or date of birth as you. This may also indicate that a sex offender has used your name or personal information to register. A false match can usually be resolved by calling the relevant courthouse to make sure the records in question belong to another individual. If the courthouse confirms that the records in question relate to your identity – usually done by confirming your SSN or driver’s license number – and you have not been convicted of a sex crime, you may be a victim of identity theft. If you are concerned, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or support@dteckt.com.

Not all criminals convicted of a sex-related offense are required to register. However, sex offenders who were not ordered to register would still appear in a criminal records database, and could have an offense description indicating a sex crime.

Sex offender records are generated from entries from each state's sex offender registries. Our data is only as accurate as the information that is publicly available by the individual state. These registries span a database of over 1.8 million records from 49 states as well as Washington D.C., Native American reservations, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands. Mississippi does not allow access to its records, but information about sex offenders in this state are still included in our database when offenders have moved there from other states.
