Dark Web Exposure Guide

Find Compromised Employee Credentials Before Attackers Do

Most account takeovers start with credentials your employees reused on a site that got breached years ago. We cross-reference your domain against billions of leaked records — including infostealer dumps and combo lists — and surface the ones that put your organization at risk today.

Credentials don't just appear on the dark web — they trickle from breached vendors and infostealer logs into combo lists that any opportunistic attacker can buy.

Where Leaks Come From

Knowing the source matters because the response differs. A credential from a 2018 breach is a reuse risk; a credential from an infostealer log this month is an active compromise.

Vendor & SaaS Breaches

  • Third-party services your employees use
  • Credentials hashed and shared in dumps
  • High volume, low immediate risk if rotated
  • Reuse on internal accounts is the real exposure

Infostealer Logs

  • Malware on personal or unmanaged devices
  • Captures plaintext browser-saved credentials
  • Active threat — usually current and valid
  • Often paired with cookies and session tokens

Combo Lists & Credential Stuffing

  • Aggregated dumps used for automated attacks
  • Lists email + likely password pairs
  • Drives the bulk of brute-force login attempts
  • Detected and reported in our scan

Phishing & Targeted Theft

  • Credentials harvested via phishing kits
  • Lower volume, higher accuracy
  • Often used in business email compromise
  • Indicate active targeting of your organization

Key insight

A leaked credential is not a vulnerability by itself — credential reuse is. The same employee who had a 2017 LinkedIn password exposed often used that password (or a close variant) on email, VPN, or your CRM. Forced rotation on those specific accounts is the highest-leverage response, and it's only possible if you know which accounts to target.
