It is already "verified," (as in, observations are there) it's that there are extensions of particle physics like WIMP for which these researchers would have liked to be able to fit them to the observations of the dark matter, and the conclusion is: http://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2016/07/21/dark-matter-may-be-completely-invisible-concludes-worlds-most-sensitive-search http://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2016/07/21/dark-... "The null detection is incredible, with a fantastic slew of implications: - Dark matter is most likely not made up, 100%, of the most commonly thought-of WIMP candidates. - It is highly unlikely that whatever dark matter is, in light of the LUX results, will be produced at the LHC. - And it is quite likely that dark matter lies outside of the standard mass range, either much lower (as with axions or sterile neutrinos) or much higher (as with WIMPzillas)." (I'm not quoting it for you, but for possible others to get the idea what the topic is). So it's that these popular supersymmetry models turned out that they don't fit to the experiments. It's just problematic for those that expected too much of the supersymmetry approach. It's good that some researchers try with MOND too -- sometimes there are some new results exactly there were they are less expected. But they have quite a lot to do to match what's easier to do otherwise.
