Abstract
In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a memory, storing processor-executable instructions, blacklist terms, and credential dump records, and a processor. The processor receives repository data from targeted remote repositories and stores the repository data as a potential credential dump in the memory when the repository data includes a credential dump attribute. The processor stores the potential credential dump as a probable credential dump when the potential credential dump does not include a blacklist term, in which case the processor also detects a format and delimiter of the probable credential dump. Based on the format and delimiter, pairs of usernames and associated passwords are identified and hashed. If a percentage of the hashes not associated with the credential dump records exceeds a predetermined threshold, the probable credential dump is deemed authentic.
