Exploit Shield: OSINT for OPSEC

By monitoring multiple public repositories (like GitHub, Postman, and BitBucket) in real time, the Exploit Strike Team has been proactively uncovering sensitive information in the wild before leaked credentials, PII, and sensitive data can be exploited. Our threat intelligence tool doesn’t just alert you to exposures, we also provides actionable intelligence so you can remediate issues immediately, reducing the risk of data breaches and reputational damage.

Our initial research revealed some leaked credentials have been publicly exposed for years.

This long-term exposure can often stem from gaps in prior external penetration tests or security assessments that failed to identify certain attack vectors.

Weaknesses such as misconfigured repositories, overlooked third-party integrations, or insufficient monitoring can leave sensitive data lingering in the wild. By identifying these longstanding exposures, we help organizations close persistent security gaps that may have gone unnoticed, reducing the risk of exploitation and damage to brand integrity. Read about some case studies on our blog.

Exploit Shield proactively discovers leaked credentials that others have failed to report

The Exploit Strike Team proactively notifies affected companies about these public leaks, even in cases where traditional vulnerability disclosure programs have failed to report; often because the exposure involved third-party companies not directly affiliated with the organization. When that happens, our team steps up to accelerate awareness and remediation, closing gaps that might otherwise leave sensitive data vulnerable for longer periods of time.

As companies increasingly depend on third and fourth-party vendors and services, the risk of exposure and secrets sprawl grows. Exploit Shield was developed to close this gap with advanced threat detection, continuous monitoring, and real-time alerts. We empower your team to act fast, mitigate indicators of exposure (IOE), and proactively stay ahead of risks.

While our threat intelligence engine continuously monitors on behalf of our clients, we occasionally uncover credential exposures that appear unrelated to an active engagement. When this occurs, we proactively notify the affected organization in alignment with our Responsible Disclosure Policy. However, without full visibility into your enterprise environment, including related domains and subsidiaries, our insight may be limited. We encourage you to contact us for a scoping call to ensure comprehensive coverage and accurate assessment.
