> have been made available for free on the dark web
where on the dark web? that's the same as saying "on the internet" or "on social media"
edit: source article states Breach Forum

It was linked from https://resecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/, which is a common and public URL, and anything uploaded there is intended to be public. Of course, whoever uploaded it either wasn't aware or didn't think it through--maybe they thought nobody would ever visit that page.
As you can see, the link is gone now.

1 Resecurity's wordpress site has directory listing turned on. Most content on the website seems to have been uploaded in february.
2 The services that does the press releases looks suspicious.
3 The second service also looks suspicious

The text on the site alone is a red flag. It might as well be Latin gibberish. And the "awards" aren't linked to anything. Some of them are just silly, like this one: https://resecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/award-4.png
which was apparently uploaded last month...

They also seem to have stolen a number of graphics on their website. If you check their filenames, they have the default filename of when you take a screenshot on OSX. Then take this one for example:
https://resecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screen-Shot-2019-03-…
Throw it into Google's reverse image search and you'll find the graphic if was cut out of:

Thanks for finding that. This image from their directory listing (maybe on their site somewhere but I couldn't find it) shows me at least something about their offering - looks like another dark web breach alerting service.
