What is the Xposed Passwords Leak Checker?

Xposed Passwords is your free password security checker to find out if your password has been leaked in a data breach. Here's what we do:

✓ We maintain a secure database of 835+ million passwords that have been leaked in data breaches

✓ When you check a password, your browser hashes it locally with SHA-3 (Keccak-512) and sends only the first 10 characters of that hash. Your password never leaves your device.

✓ We match that partial hash against our database using k-anonymity, so we can tell you about a match without ever seeing your password. Nothing you type is stored or logged.

Think of us as your password leak checker, like a metal detector for exposed passwords. If your password is found in our database, it means hackers might already know it, and you should change it right away.

What should I do if my passwords are exposed?

1. Change your password right away: If you find out your password was compromised in a data breach, change it immediately to a strong and unique password that you're not using anywhere else.

2. Turn on two-factor authentication: Add an extra layer of security to your account by turning on two-factor authentication, which makes it harder for attackers to gain access.

3. Check your account activity: Look at your account activity logs to see if there's been any weird or unauthorized activity, like someone trying to log in or change your settings.

4. Update your security questions: If you had security questions associated with your account, update them, since they may have been compromised too.

5. Check your other accounts: Check if you used the same or similar passwords for any other accounts and update them to strong and unique ones.

6. Keep an eye on your finances: Check your bank and credit card accounts for any transactions you don't recognize or didn't authorize.

7. Report the breach: Let the relevant authorities know about the data breach, whether it's the company that owns the compromised account or a government agency.

8. Use a password manager: Consider using a password manager to create and store strong, unique passwords for all your accounts.

9. Stay alert: Be on the lookout for any signs of identity theft or fraudulent activity, and report anything suspicious right away.

10. Learn more about online security: Educate yourself on the best practices for online security and stay informed about the latest threats and vulnerabilities.
