What We Monitor

We scan the dark web for six critical categories of personal data.

Email Addresses

Monitor for leaked credentials and account compromise across breach databases.

Example: john.doe@email.com found in 3 breaches

k-anonymity hash checking ensures your password never leaves your device.

Example: Password hash matched in Company X breach

Credit Cards

Detect card numbers being sold on dark web markets and carding forums.

Example: Card ending in 4242 listed on forum

Phone Numbers

Monitor phone number exposure in data dumps and SMS database leaks.

Example: +1-555-0123 found in SMS database leak

Social Security / National ID

Track SSN and national ID exposure on dark web marketplaces.

Example: SSN associated with identity for sale

Usernames

Monitor your usernames across breach databases and paste sites.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is dark web monitoring?+
Dark web monitoring scans hidden parts of the internet where stolen data is bought and sold. We check forums, marketplaces, paste sites, and breach databases for your personal information.
How do you check my passwords without storing them?+
We use k-anonymity hashing. Your password is hashed locally on your device, and only a small prefix of the hash is sent to check against breach databases. Your full password never leaves your device.
What should I do if my data is found?+
We provide specific recommendations based on what was exposed. Generally: change affected passwords immediately, enable 2FA, monitor financial accounts, and consider a credit freeze for serious exposures.
Is my monitored data safe with OrbVPN?+
Yes. Email addresses are stored encrypted. Passwords are never stored -- we only check their hash against breach databases. Credit card monitoring uses tokenized data.
How often do you check for breaches?+
We run continuous monitoring, checking multiple times per day. When major breaches are announced, we prioritize immediate scans against the new data.
