## What it is
Breach-Parse is a shell-based command-line tool for searching breached password compilations (like the BreachCompilation torrent) for credentials matching a given email domain or pattern. It helps security professionals look up exposed passwords associated with email addresses.

## Use cases
- find passwords for email addresses in breached password dumps
- check if corporate emails appear in breach compilations
- search breached credential lists during penetration tests
- audit password exposure for a domain
- look up credentials from BreachCompilation dataset

## When to choose
- you need a fast, simple CLI to query large breached password datasets
- you are doing authorized penetration testing or security assessments
- you want a lightweight shell tool with no dependencies beyond the data itself

## When to avoid
- you need real-time breach notification APIs like HaveIBeenPwned
- you cannot legally download or possess breached credential datasets
- you need a GUI or cross-platform Windows-native tool

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool

- function: security, parser, search-engine
- domain: security, penetration-testing, developer-tools
- platform: cli
