Abstract: A method for reducing a level of secure data exposure within the dark web may be provided. The secure data may be associated with a third party data custodian that may be associated with a pre-determined entity. The method may include searching the communications to identify one or more single locations that may include numerous communications that may include text identifying the selected third party data custodian. Each communication may be assigned a time-stamp in order to calculate a speed of how many communications within a pre-determined time period may be identified to include text identifying the third party data custodian. Simultaneous to the searching, the method may include running a time clock. When a rate per unit of time of identification of each identifying text is equal to or greater than a pre-determined rate per unit of time, increasing a monitoring at the one or more single locations.

Abstract: A method for reducing a level of private data exposure associated with a selected third party data custodian is provided. The third party data custodian may be associated with a pre-determined entity. The method may be performed on dark web users communications within a dark web portion of the internet. The method may include searching, periodically, the dark web users communications, for retrieving communications that may include text identifying the selected third party data custodian. The method may include identifying one or more communications including the identifying text, and for each identifying text, increasing by one digit a total name count occurrence counter for the selected third party data custodian. when the total name count escalates to a pre-determined magnitude, the method may include, locking the private data residing within a network of the selected third party data custodian from external access.

Abstract: A method for reducing a level of secure data exposure associated with a third party data custodian associated with a pre-determined entity. The method being performed on dark web users electronic communications. The method may include searching the communications that may include text identifying the selected third party data custodian. Simultaneous to the searching, the method may include running a time clock. The method may further include identifying one or more communications including the identifying text and for each identifying text, increasing a total name count by one digit for the selected third party data custodian and assigning a time-stamp of a time of identification of each identifying text. When a rate per unit of time of identification of each identifying text is equal to or greater than a pre-determined rate per unit of time, increasing a monitoring for communications including text identifying the selected third party data custodian.
