For accounting and advisory firms

See exposure that could affect client trust.

DarkWater reviews external records linked to your firm, including impersonation, credential exposure, and vendor concerns. Receive practical priorities for your IT or security team.

Start with your business name and a brief question. Keep sensitive details out of texts and public forms.

Identity and impersonation

Records and look-alike identities that could support believable fraud.

Financial-work references

Published filenames and metadata referring to tax, audit, advisory, or transaction work.

Service providers

Relevant references involving payroll, cloud platforms, client portals, or file-transfer vendors.

Start with one report.

  • Findings reviewed for relevance and confidence
  • Source notes, limitations, and recommended actions
  • Suggested owners and priorities
  • Secure delivery to agreed recipients

A baseline requires no subscription. Ongoing monitoring is optional. Exposure references are leads to assess, not proof of a current breach.

External Exposure Baseline

Agree on the company, domains, approved identities, fee, and timing before work begins.

Does this replace our IT provider?

No. External research complements your provider’s security controls. The review excludes active scanning, account access, and credential testing. Authorized third-party reviews can cover a client or acquisition target.
