Protect Customer Data, Stop Payment Fraud, and Keep Your Brand Trusted
Retailers are among the most targeted industries for credential theft and payment card fraud. DarkWatch monitors the dark web around the clock to surface exposed data before attackers can monetize it.
The Threat Landscape
Retail Is the #1 Target for Payment Card Theft and Credential Attacks
From loyalty account takeovers to full card-not-present fraud, attackers follow the money — and retail has it. DarkWatch finds your exposed data first, so you can act before customers or regulators do.

WHY DARKWATCH
Purpose-Built for the Retail Threat Landscape
Payment Card Monitoring
Detect stolen card numbers and BINs tied to your customers appearing in carding forums, dark web marketplaces, and breach databases before fraud occurs.
Fraud Detection & Prevention
Identify account takeover attempts and loyalty program fraud before attackers drain rewards balances or exploit stored payment methods.
Real-Time Alerts
Get notified within minutes when employee credentials, customer PII, or payment data surfaces on the dark web — not weeks later when damage is done.
