Abstract

A system for detecting user credentials comprising a data chunker, a data chunk storage, a bytewise checker, a bit counter, and a credential checker. The data chunker is for determining a data chunk. The data chunk storage is for storing the data chunk. The bytewise checker is for checking that each byte of the data chunk comprises an appropriate value. The bit counter is for: determining a continuous number of bytes greater than or equal to the threshold byte value; and in the event the continuous number of bytes is greater than or equal to a threshold number of bytes, determining a credential address range corresponding to the continuous number of bytes. The credential checker is for determining whether data stored in the data chunk storage corresponding to the credential address range comprises a credential.
