Credential exposure review

Understand what reported credential exposure means for your organization.

How an engagement runs

What we’ll cover

  1. Define the organization domains and information sources included in the review.

  2. Review available exposure records and their relevance to your accounts.

  3. Prioritize account protection and follow-up actions; agree separately on any ongoing monitoring.

The work

What a credential exposure review covers

Your domains and sources

The organization domains to search, and the breach and exposure sources included in the review, are agreed at the start.

Relevance to your accounts

Exposure records are checked for whether they relate to current accounts and systems, so effort goes to the exposures that matter rather than old or irrelevant data.

Protecting the accounts

Prioritised actions such as password resets, multi-factor authentication and monitoring for misuse, with any ongoing monitoring agreed separately.

Scope

A scope you can review

Your proposal defines the systems covered, deliverables, responsibilities, timeline, and fees. Work begins after the scope and required authorization are agreed. Any ongoing coverage or response commitments are specified in the service agreement.

After the work

Useful next steps

The aim is to help your team understand the findings and decide what to address first. Remediation assistance and retesting can be discussed as part of the engagement.

Questions

Common questions

What is dark web credential monitoring?

Searching breach data and other exposure sources for usernames, email addresses and passwords tied to your organization's domains, then working out which exposures put current accounts at risk.

We found our employees' emails in a breach. What should we do?

Work out whether the exposed credentials are still valid, reset those that are, make sure multi-factor authentication is enforced, and review sign-in activity for the affected accounts.

Is this a one-off review or ongoing monitoring?

Either. A one-off review shows your current exposure; ongoing monitoring can be agreed separately if you want new exposures reported as they appear.
