A Security Operations Center, or SOC, often sees credential risk after activity begins inside the environment. A Security Information and Event Management platform, or SIEM, can help teams review internal logs and alerts, while Identity and Access Management, or IAM, controls user access, authentication, and account policies.

Lunar sits on the external exposure side of that workflow. It monitors compromised credentials, stolen cookies, infostealer logs, database breaches, combo lists, leaked cookies, and sessions tied to verified company domains.

External Exposure Can Surface Before Internal Activity

A compromised credential may appear outside the company before anyone tries to use it against internal systems. That means a SOC may not see suspicious login behavior, endpoint activity, or user reports until the exposed access has already been tested or traded.
