Organization Overview: Established in 2021, Security for Community is a nonprofit cybersecurity force dedicated to safeguarding both individuals and companies worldwide. We recognize that cyber threats spare no one, so our mission is clear: to prevent attacks before they strike. We’re crafting a fortified digital future by uniting skilled professionals and advanced technology. Through free and accessible services, we’re extending a lifeline to vulnerable entities while our crowd-sourced intelligence keeps us one step ahead. Our vision is to help vulnerable individuals and organizations prevent cyber attacks globally. Join us in this collective endeavor to secure today and tomorrow.
Program Goals and Objectives: Our program aims to conduct comprehensive research within the dark web ecosystem, extracting stolen credentials obtained through compromised endpoints via information-stealer malware. This data will undergo meticulous analysis, enabling us to generate robust cyber threat intelligence tailored for the benefit of both individuals and companies who have fallen victim to cyber attacks. By leveraging this intelligence, victims will be empowered to proactively break the chain of cyber attacks and preemptively counteract potential threats stemming from using pilfered data.
Program Offerings: In our program at Security for Community, we provide practical cyber threat insights to both individuals and companies. This information serves two main purposes: First, it helps you understand if you’ve been affected by information-stealer malware. Second, it tells you about the risks involved. What’s more, we offer step-by-step actions to reduce those risks. We also share useful tips to help you stay safe in the future. And by spreading this info to more people, we’re raising awareness and getting media attention. This helps us achieve our program goal of making things safer for everyone.
Target Audience: The possibilities are wide open when identifying who can benefit from our program at Security for Community. We’re casting our net wide by analyzing data from dark web sources and generating intelligence for those affected. This program reaches a diverse audience, including individuals, small and medium businesses, large enterprises, and even government entities. And the best part? Our audience knows no bounds – it’s a global initiative that extends its reach far and wide.
Methodology and Program Components Our program at Security for Community operates through a well-defined methodology, each step carefully orchestrated to deliver effective results. Let’s delve into the details of how we make it happen:
Data Collection on the Dark Web: Our journey begins with the first crucial step – gathering stolen data from the dark web. We meticulously identify who collects this information, ensuring they receive the necessary training. This strategic phase is part of selecting the right sources, establishing secure data storage, and determining the tools and frequency for data collection.
Data Analysis: Once collected, the data undergoes a transformative process. We’ve got a specialized backend application ready to roll, meticulously cleaning and organizing the bulk data. This paves the way for creating dedicated databases neatly categorized into victim groups – customers, employees, and individuals.
Crafting Intelligence: The heart of our process lies in turning data into actionable intelligence. With databases primed and information sorted, we employ intelligence templates tailored to specific data categories. This ensures our insights are precise, insightful, and ready to make an impact.
Sharing Intelligence: What good is intelligence if it’s not shared? In the next step, we take our findings and disperse them where they matter most. For individuals, personal email addresses become a conduit of awareness. For companies, their dedicated info email accounts receive pertinent information. And that’s not all – we’re in coordination with CERTs and CSIRTs to extend the reach of our intelligence.
Supporting Victims: We stand by victims every step of the way. Our previous steps are offered free of charge, but should a victim seek more extensive support – whether it’s a deeper dive into their situation or the need for incident response – Security for Community steps in. And we do it all at a reasonable and accessible price, ensuring everyone can access the assistance they need. Our methodology is more than a process; it’s a commitment to safeguarding the digital landscape. At Security for Community, we’re not just about information but about action, impact, and resilience.
