Store · Threat Intelligence (Leaks)
No one needs to break into your company if the password that opens the door is already for sale.
An employee reused their work password on a personal site, a password-stealing program took everything, and weeks later someone logs into the company email as if they were that person: no virus, just a valid login. And it is not only the password. Your customer base, your contracts and your directors' data leak too, often through a supplier that was breached, and end up for sale in places your company does not even know exist. You usually find out late: when the fraud has happened, when the extortion arrives, or when the affected customer calls. The question is no longer whether your password policy is strong. It is who is watching what has already left you and circulates out there.
Stolen passwords and session cookies figure in 86% of breaches, the single biggest attack enabler there is, according to DeepStrike's Stealer Log Statistics 2025: the leaked credential is now the most used door.
54% of companies hit by ransomware had credentials from their own network for sale on criminal marketplaces before the attack, according to the same DeepStrike analysis: the leak appears first, and whoever sees it in time closes the door.
A leaked credential is a valid login: the antivirus and the firewall do not see it, because there is no virus and no malicious file. And leaked data starts a clock the day it shows up for sale, under data protection law. Only whoever monitors the outside sees this in time.
Leak monitoring continuously cross-checks your company's credentials and data against what circulates for sale on the open internet and the dark web, and turns every finding into an alert, with the evidence, so you act before it is used against you. Zamak Technologies puts that monitoring to work for you, guides the response and is your point of contact.
How a leak becomes an attack
What has already left your company circulates outside weeks before it becomes a loss.
See four common ways your credential or your data leaks, starts being traded, and reaches you as fraud, breach or a fine, when it could already have been contained. None of them depends on the size of your company: password-stealing programs do not pick their target, and you leak through the supply chain even without being the direct target.
An employee's password leaked and became a valid login in a fraudster's hands.
A reused password was captured by a stealer program installed by accident and sold in a bundle for a few dollars. Weeks later, a criminal bought that access and logged into the company email as if they were the employee, to divert a payment or ask a colleague for data. There is no virus for the antivirus to catch. Whoever cross-checks the company's passwords against what is for sale sees the leak and warns in time to force a reset, before the first unauthorized access.
Your customer base showed up advertised, for sale to whoever pays.
Often the leak did not even start at your company: a supplier or a partner was breached and your contact base, your orders and your customers' data went with it. Now they are on a forum, for sale, and the listing is usually the warning that a break-in or an extortion is coming next. Seeing that listing the day it appears gives your company the chance to notify those exposed within the legal deadline, contain and prepare, before the news breaks.
A confidential contract and spreadsheet left a compromised mailbox.
One breached account is enough for internal documents, a proposal, a contract, a financial spreadsheet, to leave the company and start circulating. It is information that gives an edge to a competitor, ammunition to a fraudster or material for blackmail. The data already copied does not come back, but knowing early that it is exposed lets you assess the impact, warn who needs it and reinforce what was left open, before the damage multiplies.
A director's personal data was exposed and became ammunition for a scam.
When an executive's phone, address and documents show up in a leak, they feed targeted scams: a call that sounds legitimate because the fraudster knows real details, an extortion, a transfer fraud in leadership's name. Discovering that exposure early lets you brief the person, reinforce their protection and alert the team, before the scam uses what leaked.
In all of these cases, the data leaves you and circulates outside before becoming an incident, and the antivirus and firewall, which look inward, see nothing. Seeing the leak in time, with the evidence, and responding is what leak monitoring adds to your defenses.
What leak monitoring is
It is not one more antivirus. It is knowing what is already yours and already out there.
Leak monitoring, also called leak intelligence, is a service that continuously cross-checks what identifies your company (your domains, corporate emails, the data you define as yours) against what appears exposed or for sale on the open internet and the dark web (the part of the internet search engines do not index, much of it reached only through anonymous networks, where criminals trade stolen credentials and data). When a password, a card, a database or a document of yours is found, it becomes an occurrence with an alert and the evidence of where it is, so you act before it is used. Zamak puts that monitoring to work for you, guides the response and is your point of contact.
Finds the leaked credential before the first unauthorized login
Dedicated robots constantly cross-check your company's credentials against what appears in leaks, stealer program bundles and criminal marketplaces. If a corporate password or a card surfaces, an automatic alert fires, in time to force a reset and revoke access before the criminal uses the login. It is the cheapest defense there is: neutralizing the attack in the window between the leak and its use.
Finds your exposed data and documents, with the evidence
It is not enough to know that 'something leaked'. The monitoring shows exactly where and in which source your customer base, a contract or a spreadsheet appeared, with secure access to the evidence. That precision is what turns a suspicion into a fast decision: assess what was exposed, notify who needs it and contain, with documented proof for the audit and for data protection law.
From finding to response: reset, contain, notify
Detecting without responding only documents the damage. At every alert, Zamak guides what to do: force the reset of the exposed password, revoke access, assess what needs to be reported and by when, and, when the leak turns into a fake site or profile abusing your brand, trigger the removal request. It is what closes the cycle between knowing and resolving.
Leak monitoring does not replace your password policy, two-step authentication or antivirus: they cut the chance of leaking and make use harder; it assumes leaks happen, finds what has already left and lets you respond in time. Whoever already has prevention gains here the warning when it fails, which is when the damage begins.

Inside the service
How the monitoring finds, proves and alerts
For those who want the detail: this is how a piece of your data hidden in a bundle for sale becomes an alert with evidence in your inbox, in time for you to act.
Continuous cross-check of what is yours
You define what is yours, the domains, the corporate emails, brands and sensitive data, and a mesh of collectors constantly sweeps leaks, data markets, forums and the dark web for any appearance. It is the continuous presence in the places where stolen data is traded, unfeasible to maintain in-house without a dedicated mesh of collectors.
Robots dedicated to credentials and cards
One robot catalogs leaked credentials and fires an automatic alert if a password from your company is captured. Another captures leaked card numbers and identifies the issuing bank and the card network. These are the two fronts with the greatest immediate return, because they act in the short window between the leak and the use of the data.
Evidence with secure access, even in image and audio
The finding is not a plain 'yes, it leaked'. You receive where the data is and in which source, with secure access to the evidence. Automatic text reading in images and audio transcription find emails, documents and cards hidden inside screenshots and recordings, not just in plain text, so the exposure does not slip by.
Actionable alert and integration
Each confirmed finding opens an occurrence with the context of what was found. The alert arrives by email and, when you want, straight into your SIEM or ticketing system through integration, so the finding becomes a task in your process, without depending on someone watching a dashboard.
Guided response and brand takedown
At every alert, Zamak guides the response: reset the exposed password, revoke access, contain and assess what to report and by when. When the leak turns into a fake site or profile that abuses your brand, Zamak triggers the removal request with the providers and the platforms. The data already leaked cannot be erased, but a fast response reduces what it can cause.
Reporting under your brand and recognized intelligence
The reports, the alerts and the dashboard arrive under the Zamak brand, not a vendor's name. Behind it, the collection and analysis come from internationally recognized threat intelligence, which lends authority to what you take to your audit, your insurance and your board.
The intelligence behind the service has operated since 2012, is a member of FIRST (the international forum of incident response teams), contributes to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, protects over 500 organizations worldwide and runs with 99.99% uptime, 24 hours a day.
The collection and specialized analysis run without stopping; Zamak receives the findings, guides the response, translates them for your business and is your point of contact.

The comparison
Prevention only, searching on your own, or monitoring the leak and responding
There are three ways to deal with what has already leaked from your company: rely only on prevention (password policy and two-step authentication), try to search yourself for what appears in leak databases, or hire monitoring that continuously cross-checks what is yours and guides the response. The comparison is between coverage models. The Zamak column lists only what Zamak delivers to the client.

Risk, impact and response
For every leak, a response before the damage
A company password leaked and is for sale
The attacker gets in as if they were an employee and diverts a payment
How the monitoring responds
The alert arrives and you force the reset before the first unauthorized access
The customer base was leaked and advertised
A data protection fine, affected customers and lost trust
How the monitoring responds
You are warned that day, notify those exposed within the deadline and contain before the news
A confidential document or contract leaked from an email
An edge to a competitor, ammunition for a scam or blackmail
How the monitoring responds
You learn the file is exposed, assess the impact and reinforce what was left open
An executive's personal data was exposed
A targeted scam or extortion uses the person's real details
How the monitoring responds
The exposure is found and you brief the person and reinforce their protection before the scam
Reading the findings, the response guidance and the point of contact are Zamak's.
For every decision maker
What knowing about the leak in time means for whoever decides
Seeing what has already left you before it is used solves a different pain for each role in the company.
Owner and founder
Your secrets and your people, watched where you cannot reach
You find out that company data or a director's documents leaked through monitoring, with time to react, and not through the extortion call or the affected customer's complaint. What you built stays protected where the firewall does not reach.
Executives and management
The diffuse risk of a leak becomes a predictable line
Instead of hoping nothing leaks, you have monitoring and response budgeted as a known monthly cost, with documented evidence for audit, insurance and data protection law. A breach costs, on average, 4.44 million dollars worldwide, according to IBM; knowing about the leak in time is a fraction of that.
Internal IT leader

Your team takes care of the perimeter and the passwords; the monitoring delivers what leaks outside, exposed credentials and data, ready to trigger the reset before the unauthorized login. Zamak, as your backup, adds to your work, alongside your team, never in its place; you decide what to do with each alert.
