Password Breach Checker

Check if your password appeared in a data breach using k-anonymity — 100% private and free.

🔒 How it works (k-anonymity): Your password is never sent anywhere. We hash it locally, send only the first 5 characters of the hash to HaveIBeenPwned API, and check the results locally.

About Password Breach Checker

Our Password Breach Checker uses the HaveIBeenPwned API with k-anonymity to safely check if your password has appeared in any known data breach — without ever sending your actual password.

If your password has been found in a breach, change it immediately on all accounts where you use it, and enable 2FA for extra protection.
