Abstract: A compromised data exchange system extracts data from websites using a crawler, detects portions within the extracted data that resemble personally identifying information (PII) data based on PII data patterns using a risk assessment module, and compares a detected portion to data within a database of disassociated compromised PII data to determine a match using the risk assessment module. A risk score may be assigned to a data item within the database in response to determining the match. In some embodiments, URL data may also be detected in the extracted data. The detected URL data represents further web sites that can be automatically crawled by the system to detect further PII data.
