This free online tool is a quick and convenient way to check whether a password has been exposed in any known data breaches. It securely compares your password against a database maintained by Have I Been Pwned, a trusted and widely used service that is regularly updated with information from newly discovered breaches.

If a password is found in the database, it means that the password has appeared in a past breach and may no longer be safe to use. In this case, it is strongly recommended that you change your password immediately and avoid reusing it on any other accounts, as compromised passwords are often targeted in automated attacks.

To help you create a safer replacement, please use our Password Strength Tester to evaluate your new password and our Password Generator to generate a strong, secure alternative. Together, these tools can help you improve your overall online security and reduce the risk of unauthorized access.
