Outpost24 Unveils New Tool to Identify Credential Leaks on the Dark Web

Outpost24 has launched a free tool called the Outpost24 Credential Checker, designed to assist organisations in identifying whether their credentials have been exposed on the dark web. This innovative product allows organisations to check if their email domain is linked to any credentials that have been leaked online. Powered by the company’s CompassDRP Digital Risk Protection solution, the tool utilises Outpost24’s extensive threat intelligence database to report on compromised credentials associated with a specified domain and its web assets. Timely identification of credential exposure is crucial for preventing data breaches, and the Credential Checker aims to help businesses of all sizes spot leaked credentials before they can cause significant harm. Outpost24’s goal is to democratise threat intelligence, making it accessible to all, particularly organisations with smaller budgets.

The Outpost24 Credential Checker is user-friendly, requiring users to input an email address connected to their corporate domain. The tool then scans Outpost24’s database, which contains billions of compromised credentials, generating a report within minutes that indicates whether there is a match in known public breach repositories. This free report details the number of stolen credentials found for a given domain and its related web assets, providing context on how the information may have been compromised, including the identification of prevalent malware or viruses responsible for the data theft. The Credential Checker’s capabilities are sourced from the CompassDRP platform, which offers security teams a comprehensive view of an organisation’s digital attack surface and external threats. By continuously monitoring both known and unknown public-facing assets, Outpost24 supports thousands of organisations worldwide in identifying, protecting against, and monitoring digital risks before they can be exploited.
