  • Patent number: 11750645
    Abstract: Provided is a process including: obtaining, with a domain controller of a private computer network, a set of user-authentication credentials comprising a first username and a first password; querying a distributed credential-monitoring application; receiving query results including one or more passwords associated with the first username; determining that at least some of the one or more passwords in the query results match the obtained first password; and in response to the determination, blocking, with the domain controller, access to a first user account on the private computer network associated with the obtained first username and first password.

  • Patent number: 11558409
    Abstract: Provided is a process that includes: obtaining with a distributed application comprising an identity management system, a first password; comparing with the distributed application, the first password to a set of compromised credentials within a database external to the network-accessible resource; receiving one or more passwords that match the first password based on the comparison; determining with the distributed application whether the one or more passwords satisfy a criterion; and in response to the determination that the one or more passwords satisfy the criterion, causing the first user associated with a first account and the first password to be notified that the first password has been compromised.
