How it stays safe
We compute the SHA-1 hash of your password in your browser and send only its first 5 characters to the breach database (Have I Been Pwned). The server returns all matches for that prefix and the comparison happens locally. This is k-anonymity — your password and full hash never leave your device.
If your password is breached
Change it immediately everywhere it's used and enable two-factor authentication. Create a strong one with our generator, and test it with the strength checker. To hide your traffic and IP, connect the free GANVAS VPN.
