Firm brief

LeakTrace operates a private exposure intelligence platform serving Canadian and American small businesses, family offices, and individual principals. Our platform combines licensed breach databases, external attack surface scanning, and open-source intelligence to identify pre-attack signals: the observable footprints an attacker reviews before attempting wire fraud, credential compromise, or targeted impersonation.

The company delivers three primary offerings: individual exposure scanning for consumers, forensic domain assessments for professional services businesses, and ongoing monitoring subscriptions. Our published research is drawn from the aggregate observations across the same monitoring pipeline that serves paying customers.

LeakTrace is headquartered in Toronto and works across Canada and the United States. Founded and operated privately.
