Ever stopped to think about how much of your personal or company’s data might be exposed online?
Not just email addresses—I’m talking passwords, phone numbers, social profiles, even physical addresses. It’s not an ideal condition, right?
If some of that exposed data belonged to your organisation’s key colleagues like —your VP, Directors, or even the CXOs. That’s not just embarrassing; it’s risky. We’re talking unauthorized access, leaks, and even bigger breaches.
Unfortunate reality of online accounts – data breaches.
The real question is—
– Do you know how much of your organization’s data has already been exposed?
– And are you doing anything about it before it spirals into a bigger mess?
That’s where the XposedOrNot CXO Dashboard steps in.
Think of it as your data breach exposure radar—it shows you what’s leaked, who’s at risk, and what to do next.
Let’s dive into this right away.
Introducing the Improved CXO Data Breach Dashboard
Alright, so what exactly is the CXO Dashboard?
Think of it as your go-to place for keeping track on your organization’s data exposure. It’s designed for the folks in charge—VPs, Directors, CXOs, Information Security, Cyber Security —basically, anyone who needs to know the what, where, and how of potential data risks.
Here’s the deal: The dashboard doesn’t just show you what’s been exposed. It breaks it all down—what’s at risk, the potential impact, and even a timeline that stretches back 18 years to give you the big picture. For example, which years saw spikes in breaches?
You will be able to track exactly when breaches happened and see how they’ve evolved over time. But it’s not just about pretty graphs and charts. The dashboard helps you take action.
Why is that important?
Because these accounts can be high-value targets, and a single compromised account at this level could lead to bigger problems.
You can set up alerts to hit your inbox, pop up in Teams, or even notify you on Slack. And if your security team uses tools like Splunk or Azure Sentinel, it plugs right in to make sure your SOC (Security Operations Center) is in the loop and ready to respond.
It’s all about giving leadership the tools to act fast, stay informed, and keep their organizations safer.
What’s New and Improved in the CXO Dashboard
The updated CXO Dashboard is like having a quick snapshot of all the domains your organization is monitoring. Either for one or more domains,it gives you a clear, consolidated view of recent and past data breaches and their impact.
Here’s the thing: Many of us (or our employees) use corporate emails to sign up for third-party websites—sometimes for business, sometimes for personal use.
If one of those websites gets breached, there’s a good chance that exposed data could include your organization’s emails. That’s where the dashboard comes in handy.
Why This Matters
The dashboard gives you key metrics like:
- The number of domains you’re monitoring.
- The count of exposed data associated with those domains.
You can even see how many VPs, Directors, and CXOs have been exposed. Why is that important?
Because these accounts can be high-value targets, and a single compromised account at this level could lead to bigger problems like privilege escalation or account takeovers.
A Look at Breach Trends Over Time
With a timeline stretching back 18 years, you can spot trends in data breaches. For example:
- Which years saw spikes in breaches?
- Were any breaches exposing sensitive info like passwords?
This kind of insight helps you plan your next steps, like beefing up security measures or focusing on the biggest risks.
Top Breaches to Watch Out For
The dashboard also highlights the top five breaches affecting your employees. If it’s a business tool or service where your employees’ data has been exposed, it’s a wake-up call to act fast.
This feature can also guide internal communication. For instance, you can use it to remind employees how and where to safely use their corporate emails.
After all, breaches involving end-consumer websites have been known to escalate into much bigger organizational risks.
The CXO Dashboard isn’t just about numbers—it’s about giving you the transparency and tools to reduce risks and strengthen your security posture.
Steps to Get Access - CXO Dashboard
Setting up data breach alert monitoring for a company or domain is pretty easy with just three simple steps:
- DNS Verification
- HTML Verification
- Email Verification
Step 1 is all about verifying the domain. Once that’s done successfully, the data breaches associated with the domain become accessible—but only to the person who completed the validation.
This way, we ensure that sensitive breach information is only visible to those with the proper permissions and authority to handle it.
Get Alerts Your Way: Email, Teams, or Slack
The CXO dashboard is not just about giving you the raw data but it is also refreshed in real time based on breaches loaded in XposedOrNot.
Though the default alert works with no action, we also know not everyone loves email for all of these notifications.
That’s why we’ve added support for Microsoft Teams and Slack notifications. Prefer getting alerts directly in your Teams channel or Slack workspace?
No problem! You can set it up in just a few clicks.
The setup process is super simple. Just follow the on-screen instructions, and you’ll have your alerts up and running in under a minute. Once configured, these alerts will be your input feed in the channel of notification as per your preference.
Teams and Slack notifications are perfect for those who want an alternative to traditional email alerts. They’re great for faster collaboration, letting your team jump into action right away when something comes up.
By default, email alerts are always enabled, but adding Teams or Slack notifications gives you even more flexibility. Choose what works best for you—and stay ahead of the game.
Extend the Power of the CXO Dashboard with API Integration
The CXO Dashboard doesn’t just stop at showing you the data—it also lets you take things a step further by giving you access to raw data through an API.
With the API, you can query the system whenever it’s convenient and feed breached data directly into your security tools or workflows. This makes it super easy to set up notifications, automate remediation steps, and stay ahead of any risks.
Key Integrations That Make Life Easier
- SIEM Tools (Splunk)
The API integrates seamlessly with tools like Splunk. In fact, XposedOrNot even offers a direct integration with Splunk to make things even smoother. Once set up, your alerts can flow directly into your SIEM, ensuring your security teams are always in the know. - Azure Sentinel
If you’re using Azure Sentinel, configuring alerts with the API key is pretty easy.
More Ways to Use the API
The API isn’t just for SIEM tools. You can also use it to:
- Query exposed data and feed it into other security tools or workflows.
- Automate actions like notifying users about breaches or prompting them to change their passwords.
Exporting Data for Deeper Analysis
Need the data for reporting or further analysis? You’ve got options.
The dashboard lets you export raw data of exposed users and their respective breaches in CSV, PDF, or HTML formats. This makes it easy to plug the data into other tools or even use it in custom scripts.
With the API, the CXO Dashboard isn’t just a tool—it’s a part of your security operations.
Whether you’re automating responses or analyzing breach data, it’s all about how to better use this data for your own requirements.
Taking Action with Insights from the CXO Dashboard
With access to all the data on exposed emails, you can easily plan your next moves and fine-tune your response playbook.
What Can You Do with This Data?
Here are a few practical steps you might consider:
- Start with the basics: Reset the password for any impacted user.
- Check if the exposed password has been reused across other systems. If it has, those systems need new passwords too to prevent account takeovers.
- Dive into the user’s activity history to ensure no unauthorized access has occurred.
Yearly Trends at a Glance
The dashboard also gives you a clear, easy-to-read yearly trend of data breaches affecting your organization. This view makes it simple to spot patterns and prioritize actions for the exposed data breaches.
By identifying trends and acting quickly, you can stay one step ahead of potential risks. This can further strengthen your organization’s security posture. We can also prevent small issues from turning into big problems.
Stay Ahead with the CXO Dashboard
With the new and improved CXO dashboard, you will get better transparency into your organisation’s data breaches.
Transparent data gives you the right strategies to be deployed to minimize the impact of account takeovers.
Since account takeovers are the top reason for data breaches in the recent past, this will help you plan and take appropriate steps suitable for your organisation. Maybe you can even prevent account take over before they happen.
Ready to Get Started?
The best part? Accessing the CXO Dashboard is completely free. All you need to do is verify your domain using the simple steps we covered earlier.
With this data, you’re not just reacting to breaches—you’re preventing the next ones.
Be aware. Stay safe. Take control.
