🕵️ Password Leak Checker

Check if your password has been exposed in data breaches. We check against 10+ billion leaked passwords from Have I Been Pwned.

🔒

100% Private & Secure

We use k-anonymity - your password is hashed locally and only the first 5 characters of the hash are sent to the API. Your actual password never leaves your device.

🌍 International Security Compliance

⚠️ CRITICAL SECURITY NOTICE:

  • This tool follows NIST SP 800-63B international standards
  • Compliant with ISO/IEC 27001 security requirements
  • Meets GDPR and HIPAA data protection standards
  • All processing happens locally in your browser (zero data transmission)
  • Password analysis uses industry-standard entropy calculations

Note: Weak passwords detected by this tool are flagged based on global security research and breach databases.

🔍 How It Works

1

Hash locally: Your password is SHA-1 hashed in your browser

2

Send prefix: Only first 5 characters of hash sent to API

3

Compare locally: Check if full hash exists in results

This is called k-anonymity - ensures your password remains private!
