The Trident_Cloud Leak Happened in 2024. 12,100 Passwords Surfaced.

The Trident_Cloud Leak Happened in July 2024. HEROIC Analysts Just Found It.

HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log uploaded to a public Telegram channel on July 10, 2024, tied to United States based accounts. The file, labeled Trident_Cloud, contains 12,100 records made up of email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs each credential unlocks. Months after it first appeared, this data is still sitting on Telegram, available to anyone who looks for it.

Why This Is Dangerous

The passwords in this log were never hashed or encrypted. They sit in plaintext, paired directly with the email address and website they belong to. That means the time between someone finding this file and being able to log into an affected account is close to zero, no cracking, no guessing, just a direct match.

What Was Exposed in the Trident_Cloud Log

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs linked to each set of credentials

Why This Matters

The longer a plaintext credential dump like this circulates, the more chances attackers have had to test it. Passwords reused across email, banking, or shopping accounts are prime material for credential stuffing, and every day this file remains available increases the odds of account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud for the 12,100 people whose data it contains.

How Stealer Log Breaches Work

Stealer logs come from infostealer malware that infects a device through a malicious download, cracked software, or a phishing link, then quietly copies saved browser passwords and the web addresses tied to them. The completed log is uploaded to Telegram channels and underground forums, where it can sit for months, as this Trident_Cloud file did, before wider attention catches up to it.

Check If You Are Affected

Do not wait for a breach to resurface before checking your exposure. HEROIC's free breach scanner compares your email address against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, so you can find out today if the Trident_Cloud leak or any other breach affects you.
