Dark Web Monitoring
Right now, credentials from your organization may be for sale on dark web marketplaces. Stolen from phishing attacks, third-party vendor breaches, or infostealer malware — they're traded for as little as $10 per account. Dark web monitoring from LayerLogix continuously scans underground forums, ransomware leak sites, and credential markets for your domain, executive accounts, and brand impersonation. When exposure is detected, we don't just alert you — we help you respond.
Dark web monitoring · One stolen login, start to finish
Follow a stolen login from leak to lockout
One employee password, traced from the breach that leaked it to the listing that sells it to the reset that kills it. Pick a source, flip the toggles, or let it play. Tap a lens to dive in.
Hour zero · The listing
Someone is selling a login to your business
Your bookkeeper joined a rewards program with her work email and her usual password. That site got breached, and now her login sits in a market listing beside plenty of others. Nobody at your office has a clue yet. Here's the path it took to get there.
What LayerLogix does
- Register your domains, executive emails and brand names for watching
- Run a baseline scan for exposures that are already out there
- Call and email you on critical finds, with the details and next steps
Step 1 · How it got out
Three ways a work password walks out the door
A work login usually escapes one of three ways: another company's site gets breached, infostealer malware on a family PC grabs saved passwords and cookies, or an old password gets reused on the account that matters. Pick one and follow its route.
What LayerLogix does
- Watch the forums, paste sites and markets where logins get traded
- Watch executive addresses too, personal ones included
- Tell you what leaked and where it turned up
Step 2 · Detection
Your domain on the watchlist, and one match lights up
Monitoring compares your domain, your executives' addresses and look-alikes of your brand against what turns up in breach dumps, paste sites, ransomware leak sites and market listings. Most of it belongs to someone else. A match lights up and becomes an alert.
What LayerLogix does
- Match your domain, executives and brand against new findings
- Flag look-alike domains when they get registered
- Rank each match by severity before it reaches you
Step 3 · Triage
Old breach or fresh stealer log? Triage decides
Not every match is a fire. A password from an old breach that's been changed since is a coaching moment. A fresh stealer log with live session cookies is an emergency. Flip between them and watch the answers change: is it current, what does it open, and does MFA cover it?
What LayerLogix does
- Check whether the leaked password is still in use
- Map which accounts it opens and whether MFA covers them
- Sort it into log-and-coach or respond-right-now
Step 4 · Response
Reset, sign out, read the logs, hunt the inbox
When the answer is 'it's live', we move. Reset the password, sign out the sessions already open, read the sign-in logs for logins that weren't hers, and look for the quiet inbox rule forwarding invoices out. After that, whoever buys the listing is buying a dead password.
What LayerLogix does
- Force the password reset and revoke active sessions
- Review sign-in logs for access that wasn't the employee's
- Hunt for malicious inbox rules and mail forwarding
Step 5 · Prevention
Unique passwords and passkeys turn a leak into a dead end
Now turn the leak into a fix. A password manager gives each site its own password, so one breach stays one breach. Phishing-resistant MFA, like passkeys or security keys, means a stolen password alone isn't enough for Microsoft 365. Flip it and watch reuse hit a wall.
What LayerLogix does
- Harden access controls after each exposure
- Put fixes in your monthly exposure report, in plain English
- Fold what we find into your security and incident response plans

What We Offer
Comprehensive solutions tailored for Houston-area businesses
Domain-Based Credential Scanning
Continuous monitoring of dark web forums, paste sites, ransomware leak sites, and underground marketplaces for email addresses matching your domain. When an employee's credentials appear in a breach dump, you know within hours — not months.
Ransomware Leak Site Monitoring
Every major ransomware group publishes stolen data on dedicated leak sites. We monitor these continuously. If your organization's name or data appears, that's a critical alert indicating an active or completed intrusion you may not have detected internally.
Executive & VIP Monitoring
Executives, board members, and privileged users are high-value targets. We monitor their personal and professional email addresses, associated accounts, and publicly exposed PII that attackers use for social engineering, SIM swapping, and targeted phishing.
Brand & Typosquatting Detection
Attackers register domains designed to impersonate your company — layerl0gix.com, layer-logix.com — to run phishing campaigns against your employees or clients. We alert you when look-alike domains are registered so you can act before they're weaponized.
Same-Day Alert & Response
When credentials surface, our team doesn't just send you an email. We help force-reset compromised passwords, revoke active sessions, review sign-in logs for unauthorized access, and check for malicious inbox rules — all within hours of detection.
Monthly Threat Intelligence Reports
Regular reporting on your organization's dark web exposure — credentials found, trends in your industry, new threats targeting your sector, and recommendations for reducing your attack surface based on what we're seeing across our client base.
Why Choose LayerLogix?
Serving businesses throughout the Greater Houston area including Houston, The Woodlands, Spring, Katy, Sugar Land, Conroe, Pearland, Pasadena.
Reduce Breach Window from Months to Hours
The average time to detect a credential compromise is 204 days. Dark web monitoring reduces that to hours — giving you time to act before attackers use stolen credentials to access your systems.
Prevent Account Takeover & BEC
Business email compromise costs U.S. companies $2.9 billion annually. Most BEC attacks begin with stolen credentials. Knowing when credentials leak lets you reset them before they're used for wire fraud or impersonation.
Support Cyber Insurance Requirements
Many cyber insurance carriers now require dark web monitoring as a condition of coverage. Our monitoring satisfies this requirement and provides documentation for your renewal application.
Protect Your Brand
Typosquatting detection catches impersonation domains before they're used to phish your clients or damage your reputation. Early detection means you can file takedown requests before harm occurs.
Integrated Security — Not Just Alerts
Unlike standalone monitoring tools that just send emails, our service includes response actions — credential resets, session revocation, inbox rule audits, and sign-in log investigation when exposures are detected.
Our Process
Somewhere on a market you will never visit, your login just got listed.
Most leaked credentials do not come from your systems. They come from other sites' breaches - the retail account, the travel site, the old forum - where an employee reused a work email and password. Here is what that feed looks like, and what happens when monitoring is watching it.
Every row above is fictional placeholder data. The real feeds are not - and they update every day.
Detected
The automated scan runs 24/7 across breach dumps, paste sites, and credential markets. It matches a leaked login to your domain within hours of it surfacing - not months later when someone tries to use it.
Flagged
The match becomes a critical alert with the account, the source of the leak, and what to do about it. Our team reviews it and reaches out during business hours, with after-hours emergency support when it cannot wait.
Password rotated
The exposed password gets force-reset and active sessions get revoked. Whoever bought that credential is now holding a key to a lock that no longer exists.
MFA blocks reuse
Even if the attacker tries the old password somewhere else you own, multi-factor authentication challenges the login and stops the replay. The leak becomes a non-event instead of a breach.
You cannot delete data from the dark web. You can make it worthless.
The scan never sleeps, and a rotated password with MFA behind it is just noise in a dump file. That is the whole play: find it fast, kill it fast, move on.
