Why Choose This Project

Data breaches and credential leaks on the dark web pose a major threat to individuals and organizations. Leaked usernames, emails, and passwords can be exploited for account takeover, fraud, or phishing attacks. Manual monitoring is impractical due to the vastness of the dark web. This project automates the detection of leaked credentials, notifying users or administrators in real-time to take immediate preventive measures.

What You Get

A web-based platform that continuously monitors dark web sources, paste sites, forums, and breach databases for leaked credentials. Users can register accounts or email addresses to monitor, receive instant alerts when a match is found, and visualize trends of leaks. The platform supports secure reporting and risk scoring, making it valuable for cybersecurity teams, IT administrators, and concerned individuals.
