What Happened to Digital Shadows

In July 2022, ReliaQuest acquired Digital Shadows and integrated its SearchLight digital risk protection product into the ReliaQuest GreyMatter platform. There is no longer an independent Digital Shadows product or roadmap.

ReliaQuest has raised $500M+ in funding and is focused on enterprise SOC operations — a direction that may not serve teams that originally chose Digital Shadows for focused digital risk protection, physical security monitoring, or OSINT investigation capabilities.

Buyers who selected Digital Shadows for its standalone DRP capabilities now have a platform optimized for SOC integration. Teams evaluating alternatives are looking for independent platforms with transparent pricing and a roadmap driven by security team needs.
