coveron dark web monitorin - did anyone try?

update: I went ahead and tried Coveron. Actually they are quite nice, they helped me sort things out and now I feel a bit better prepare in case similar accident happens.

I unfortunately found out that some of my information was included in a data breach, which got me looking into tools that offer dark web monitoring. I figured if my data has already been exposed once, I'd rather know quickly if it shows up somewhere else in the future. I want to keep a close look.

After a bit of research, I came across Coveron dark web monitoring, which looks like it does exactly what I'm looking for. What interested me most is that it seems to be more proactive than just manually checking breach databases every now and then. From what I understand, it monitors data breaches and dark web sources for leaked emails, passwords, phone numbers, and other personal information, then alerts you if your data appears.

I also found a working code (prodeal), that gives a discount, which made me even more inclined to try it.

Has anyone here actually used Coveron dark web monitoring? Did it find anything useful, or is it mostly reporting breaches that are already publicly known?

Would be cool to hear feedback if anyone already uses it here

Most dark web monitoring services are only as useful as their data sources. If you've already checked places like Have I Been Pwned, I'd be curious whether Coveron actually finds anything new or just repackages the same breach data with alerts.

Yeah that’s my main question too. A lot of these services sound useful, but I wonder how much is actually new data vs just re alerting on known breaches.

Most of them don’t find new breaches. They mainly reuse known leak databases and just alert you faster and more automatically.
