Why employee credential leaks are a ticking time-bomb ⚠️
Info-stealer malware drops millions of clear-text usernames and passwords on public forums and Telegram channels daily. The playbook for criminals is simple:
- Buy a dump that contains one of your employees’ logins.
- Reuse the exposed password.
- Bypass MFA with stolen session cookies.
- Move laterally through your network.
LeakRadar solves the issue at its root.
- 3 B+ credentials already indexed, with new records ingested around the clock.
- Domain, email, or keyword watches with real-time alerts via Email, Slack, Telegram, or webhook.
- Filters to zero in on employees, customers, or third parties.

You decide whether your SIEM/SOAR receives the full password or just the heads-up.
First actions to automate 🤖
- Employees — Hit the IdP API (Okta, Azure AD, …) to force-reset the password and revoke active sessions.
- Customers — Bump the account’s risk score, mandate MFA, or trigger step-up verification.
- Third parties — Alert the vendor and pause their access until they remediate.
