On our list of 33 features
The list comes from DarknetSearch’s own feature pages, so it is built around what we do. What Flare offers outside it is listed further down.
DarknetSearch, made in Switzerland by Kaduu, collects leaked data, full stealer logs and underground chatter, and lets you search, monitor and report on all of it in one place. Attack surface discovery, code exposure and domain spoofing detection with takedowns sit in the same workspace, and every feature comes with an API and webhooks.
Flare describes a threat exposure management platform that monitors dark web forums, Telegram, stealer logs, ransomware leak sites and the clear web for exposed identities of employees, customers and machines. It sends alerts into SOC tools and can start remediation through identity providers such as Microsoft Entra ID.
