Combolist Protection by SpyCloud

Combolists used to be recycled passwords from old breaches. Not anymore.
SpyCloud research found that 51% of credentials within combolists now overlap with infostealer logs, so the credentials inside are often freshly stolen and still working, posted to Telegram within hours of infection.

Size is not the signal, contents are. SpyCloud analyzes every recaptured combolist to see exactly what it exposes, matches it against your domains to find affected employees, and automates the reset before those credentials get used.

What you'll see

From a raw combolist to a prioritized response

This demo follows a combolist from the moment SpyCloud recaptures it to the point where an employee’s exposed identity data is remediated.

You’ll see what a real Telegram combolist contains, how SpyCloud assigns severity levels to the identity data inside it, and how the matches to your workforce turn into an automated response.

HOW IT WORKS

How SpyCloud turns a combolist into action

Recapture

Combolists are pulled from Telegram and other criminal underground sources as they are posted and updated.

Match

Recaptured data is correlated against email addresses to find which of your employees are inside the list.

Prioritize

Each match gets a severity rating. The most urgent exposures rise to the top, low-risk records stay out of the way.

Respond

Confirmed matches trigger automated password resets across cloud, hybrid, and
on-premises.

Combolists Demo FAQs

It shows how SpyCloud recaptures a combolist from the criminal underground, analyzes the identity data inside it, matches it to your workforce, and drives an automated response. The walkthrough uses a real recaptured Telegram combolist, assigns the records a severity, and follows a confirmed exposure through to remediation.

A combolist is a collection of username and password pairs compiled for use in identity-based attacks such as credential stuffing and account takeover. Historically they were recycled credentials from old breaches. Today many are assembled from fresh infostealer logs, which makes the credentials inside far more likely to still be valid.

Not anymore. SpyCloud research found that 51 percent of username-password combolists overlap with infostealer logs, meaning much of what trades as a combolist originated as freshly stolen credentials that were repackaged and resold. That freshness is what makes modern combolists dangerous, because the passwords are more likely to still work.

SpyCloud correlates recaptured combolist data against your domains to reveal the employees whose identity data appears in active criminal collections, then assigns a severity rating to each exposure. Severity analysis lets your team separate the identities that need an immediate response from the ones that do not, rather than treating every record the same.

SpyCloud integrates with your identity providers to automate the response, including notifying the user and resetting the exposed password, and orchestrates those actions across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments. Combolists are one of many criminal underground sources SpyCloud continuously recaptures and acts on.
