Dark Web Monitoring
Dark Web Monitoring is a service that scans for your personal information on hard-to-find dark websites and forums. It is important because identity thieves can buy or sell your personal information to commit several illicit activities.
When we detect your information on the dark web, we notify you to gain awareness and act. To review the alert or notification that you received, go to your account dashboard or mobile app. To verify if the alert that you received is from Norton, read Verify that an email you receive from Norton is legitimate.
You may receive alerts that are either Attributed in which the site of the breach is known. Or Unattributed meaning that the exposed data could belong to a site that no longer exists or fall under the category of unknown/others (not mapped to any site).
