Have I Been Pwned Adds Stealer Logs Feature for Users

/ 1 min read

🔍💻 Have I Been Pwned introduces new feature to query stealer logs for exposed credentials. The popular data breach notification service now allows users to check which websites their email addresses have been associated with in stealer logs, a type of data generated by malware that captures login credentials. Individuals can verify their email addresses to access this information, while organizations can utilize a new API to monitor their domains. The data includes billions of records, revealing potential exposure across various services, including sensitive sites. However, the presence of an email address in these logs does not guarantee a breach, as it may not indicate actual usage of the services listed. This feature aims to enhance user awareness and security in the face of rising cyber threats.
