About breachmonitor

breachmonitor explains how data breaches and credential leaks work: how passwords end up in combolists, how attackers use them, and what to do when your data is exposed. Because that subject attracts a lot of alarmist marketing, here is exactly who is writing this.

The operator

SEQ SIA, registration No. 40203410806, Lastādijas iela 12 k-3, Riga, LV-1050, Latvia, trading as OffSeq. The company provides security assessments, credential-exposure monitoring and incident response. Contact: support@offseq.com.

Editorial responsibility

SEQ SIA (OffSeq) is responsible for publishing, maintaining and updating this site. Articles use team attribution. Sources are listed so readers can check the basis for the guidance.

Sourcing and evidence

• Breach descriptions rely on the disclosing organisation's own notice, a regulator's statement or a named research publication – not on aggregator screenshots.
• We do not host, sell, link to or republish leaked data, and we do not tell readers where to obtain it.
• Breach numbers are reported with the source and its date, because early figures are routinely revised. Numbers we cannot attribute are left out.
• The “Updated” date changes only when the text changes; an automated content-hash ledger enforces that.

Our commercial interest

We sell exposure monitoring and incident response. A site that explains why leaked credentials are dangerous is also a site that brings us customers. That is worth knowing before you take any advice here at face value.

• Links to OffSeq services and products are our own commercial links.
• No third party pays for a mention; there is no advertising, sponsorship or affiliate arrangement.
• Unique passwords and phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication help limit credential abuse without requiring our monitoring service. Costs and deployment effort depend on the tools, accounts and organisation.

Limits

This site does not check whether your data has leaked, does not remove data from breach collections and gives no legal advice on breach-notification duties under the GDPR or NIS2.

Corrections
