Frequently Asked Questions

What is Data Breach Monitoring?

Data breach monitoring is the process of monitoring data breaches for mentions of specific individuals, brands, phone numbers, and other types of sensitive information. With data breaches becoming increasingly common, leveraging a data breach tool for monitoring your assets is crucial for protecting your customers’ and employees’ sensitive information.

How Does Data Breach Monitoring Work?

Breachsense continuously tracks millions of online sources, including IRC and Telegram channels, private cybercrime communities, ransomware marketplaces, and more. Your security team is notified the moment there are any mentions of your:

Employee or customer account credentials or other sensitive data
Login credentials to your C-level executive accounts
Credentials for remote access servers like SSH, Remote Desktop, and FTP
Internal company emails or documents
Employee corporate or government-issued IDs

How Data Breach Monitoring Helps Prevent Cybercrime?

By detecting data breaches in real time, your security team will be able to react immediately before any damage is done. The moment a breach is detected, you can:

Reset Compromised Passwords
Terminate Compromised Sessions
Prevent Fraudulent Purchases
Upgrade Your Security Measures

Is A Data Breach The same As A Data Leak?

It’s true that both terms - “data breach” and “data leak” - seem as if they referred to the same type of a cyber threat. In reality, however, they do have slightly different meanings. A data breach occurs where a third party gains unauthorized access, often malicious, to compromise sensitive information within a system or network. A data leak, on the other hand, usually means an unauthorized release of confidential data, whether intentional or unintentional by a third party but also an employee of a company.

Where can I check if my data has been breached?

Breachsense allows you to search across multiple data breaches, infostealer logs, and combo lists to see if your data has been breached. Use the Breachsense dark web scanner to see which of your organization’s accounts have been compromised.

How do you detect a data breach?

Detecting a data breach requires continuous monitoring across a broad range of sources, like the dark web, hacker forums, and ransomware channels, for compromised data. By tracking leaked credentials, stolen company data, and patterns of unusual activity, organizations can identify breaches early.
