The problem it solves

Employee credentials leak in breaches you never hear about until it's too late. By the time a compromised password gets used against you, the damage is already done.

Who it fits

A business that wants an early warning when a team or customer email appears in a known data breach.

How it works

  1. On a regular schedule, the system checks a list of email addresses
  2. Each address is queried against the Have I Been Pwned breach database
  3. If any address shows up in a new breach, it's flagged
  4. A high-priority alert is sent to your team's Slack channel
What you get

Breached emails caught before they become a problem

You get a high-priority Slack alert the moment a team email address turns up in a known data breach.

What you get

A Slack alert naming the compromised email and the breach it was found in.

What you need

A Slack workspace and access to the Have I Been Pwned API.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
