Credential Risk Detection is available to organizations on a Dashlane Omnix plan.

What is Credential Risk Detection?
Credential Risk Detection uncovers credential risk across your organization without compromising employee privacy.
To improve security and reduce risks, admins must detect and respond to credential vulnerabilities early, reducing the chance of unauthorized access to sensitive data.
Dashlane securely and silently monitors for weak and compromised passwords entered on company-managed desktop browsers, even if an employee doesn't have a Dashlane account or isn't logged in.
What are weak and compromised passwords?
Weak passwords contain a combination of characters easily guessed or cracked, and compromised passwords have been either stolen or exposed to unauthorized third parties in a breach. Both weak and compromised passwords put the associated accounts and data at risk, meaning someone other than the intended user can access them.

Security alerts and Dark Web Monitoring in Dashlane
After Credential Risk Detection is turned on, any at-risk passwords entered by employees in company-managed desktop browsers will be logged in the Activity Log and displayed on the Risk Detection Insights tab on the Admin Console. With this data, you can detect and prioritize risks to take action.
When you identify an employee or group with risky password practices, you can invite them to your Dashlane plan. With Dashlane, they can use the Password Generator to create strong, secure passwords and store their credentials safely in an encrypted vault.
Like other data stored in Dashlane, Credential Risk Detection data is protected by our patented zero-knowledge security architecture.
Watch Risk Detection in action
Set up Credential Risk Detection
With a few steps, admins can deploy the Dashlane Smart Extension silently on managed browsers to monitor for risk without alerting employees. This gives admins an accurate view of every employee's credential risk.
What is a silent deployment?
A "silent deployment" of the Dashlane Smart Extension means installing the extension on employees' work browsers without any visible prompts or interaction needed from the employee. Admins must configure the managed device policy before deploying Credential Risk Detection. This ensures Risk Detection's proactive threat monitoring doesn't alert or disrupt the employees.
Admins can set up Credential Risk Detection for Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge using Windows and Microsoft Intune or Group Policy (GPO), or macOS and Jamf.
