Credential leak monitoring that catches what perimeter tools miss

Stolen credentials surface in stealer logs and Telegram channels hours after infection — long before they hit the dark web. LeakyCreds monitors those sources continuously, so your team can act before attackers do.

Infostealers like Lumma and RedLine harvest browser-saved passwords and session cookies from infected devices — then upload them to Telegram channels within hours. Attackers buy those logs, filter for corporate domains, and test credentials against VPNs and SaaS apps the same day. Traditional security tools don't see any of this. They monitor your perimeter, not the channels where your credentials are being sold.

What credential leak monitoring actually involves

Credentials leak through three primary channels. Infostealer malware — families like Lumma, Vidar, and Rhadamanthys — extracts saved passwords, session cookies, and autofill data from browsers on infected endpoints, then uploads everything to C2 servers or Telegram channels. Third-party breaches expose employee credentials used on external services like LinkedIn, Dropbox, or niche SaaS tools. Paste sites and forums host credential dumps from a mix of sources, often months after the original compromise.

The dangerous part: stealer logs contain active session cookies. An attacker with a valid session cookie can walk into your Okta, Google Workspace, or Salesforce instance without triggering a password prompt or MFA challenge. This is why speed matters — the window between credential theft and exploitation is hours, not weeks.

Effective credential leak monitoring has to cover all three channels, in near real-time, and surface findings fast enough for your SOC to act. Periodic dark web scans that run weekly or monthly miss the window entirely. By the time those tools flag a credential, the session cookie has already been used and discarded.

HOW IT WORKS

From raw leak to actionable alert in seconds

1

Ingest

3M+ records daily from stealer log feeds, Telegram channels, dark web markets, paste sites, and breach compilations

2

Match

Every record cross-referenced against your monitored domains and application identifiers in real time

3

Score

Multi-layer validation filters noise. Severity assigned by source type, credential freshness, and exposure context

4

Alert

Webhook fires to your SIEM, Slack, or PagerDuty. Incident appears in the dashboard with full source attribution

CAPABILITIES

Detection to remediation, in one platform

Continuous Domain Monitoring

Your domain is watched 24/7 across stealer logs, breach compilations, Telegram channels, and paste sites. Exposures surface automatically — no manual queries.

Sub-30-Second Alerts

When a credential matching your domain hits our pipeline, a webhook fires to Slack, PagerDuty, your SIEM, or any HTTP endpoint. Seconds, not hours.

Source Attribution

Every finding tagged with origin — stealer family (Lumma, RedLine, Vidar), breach compilation, paste site, or Telegram channel — plus detection timestamp and confidence score.

Severity Scoring

Automated severity (Critical / High / Medium) based on credential type, source freshness, and context. Fresh stealer log with session cookie? Critical. Year-old breach dump? Medium.

Built-In Remediation Tracking

Assign incidents to team members, track status from New → In Progress → Resolved, and export audit trails — all from one dashboard.

REST API & Webhooks

Full REST API, webhook support, and native SIEM/SOAR integrations. Drop LeakyCreds into your existing stack — zero infrastructure changes required.

LeakyCreds vs. legacy dark web monitoring

Most dark web monitoring tools rely on periodic forum scrapes and marketplace crawls. They miss the fastest-moving credential source: stealer logs.
