Snipeyes DBM: learn about a leak before criminals use it
When staff passwords, customer records or system keys leak, they tend to surface first on the dark web, on paste sites or in public code. Criminals look there too. An organization that hears about its leak from a journalist or a regulator has already lost time, money and control of the story.
Snipeyes DBM (data breach monitoring) watches those places for you. When your data appears, you get an alert with the evidence and clear next steps, including removal at the source.
What we look for
- Staff email addresses, passwords and customer personal data in breach dumps, each with its source and a confidence score. Repeated copies of the same leak are merged.
- Code and secrets left in GitHub, GitLab or open cloud storage such as Amazon S3. This includes configuration files (such as
.envfiles) and the API keys and private keys that open your systems. Each alert names the exact repository and file. - Brand and domain abuse, such as lookalike domains (typosquatting), reused phishing kits and rogue certificates that impersonate you.
- Talk of breaches at your suppliers that could expose the access they hold to your systems.
Why a one-off check is not enough
| Free breach checkers | Annual dark web report | Snipeyes DBM | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freshness | Old dumps only | A snapshot once a year | Continuous monitoring with alerts |
| Scope | One email at a time | Domains only | Domains, executives, code, keys and brand |
| Evidence | Yes or no | Screenshot | Source, confidence and exposure pack |
| Next steps | Up to you | Generic advice | Reset guidance and takedown handoff |
| Audit trail | None | Timestamped log of every exposure |
When something turns up
- Detect: Collectors run around the clock and match what they find against your watchlists. Noise is filtered out and duplicate lists are merged.
- Alert: Your team is notified by Slack, SIEM webhook or email, with an evidence packet for security and legal staff. Severity reflects how easily the data could be abused and how sensitive it is.
- Contain: You receive the list of accounts that need a forced password reset, guidance on revoking exposed keys, and the likely scope of any customer notification within GDPR Article 33 timelines.
- Remove and confirm: One click passes the case to Content Take Down for removal at the source. A fresh scan confirms it is gone.
A record your auditor and regulator can follow
Every exposure is timestamped, from first sighting to removal. That record supports evidence for ISO/IEC 27001 controls A.5.16 and A.8.16, SOC 2 CC6.1 and CC7.2, and breach notification under GDPR Article 33. It also helps with the first question a board or regulator will ask after an incident: when did you know?
Scope and pricing
Watchlists are not capped, sources are global and monitoring runs 24/7. The fee is fixed, however many records are found. Access is controlled with role-based permissions, audit logging and retention settings, and the work is covered by an NDA. For the attacker context behind a leak, DBM pairs with CTI.
DBM is most useful for banks, software providers and large enterprises with many customers or a public code footprint, where a single leaked key can become a breach.
