Frequently asked questions
What is a Data Breach Scanner?
It is an online tool that helps you find out whether your email address was exposed in data breaches or not. It scans the leaked databases and compares the compromised emails with the one you provide.
How was my email compromised?
Despite the ongoing efforts to enhance cybersecurity globally, 30,000 websites are hacked on a daily basis, and billions of data breaches still take place every year. The email addresses, passwords, and other login details exposed in these breaches are then sold on the dark web for malicious purposes.
How can I avoid data breaches in the future?
It is difficult to avoid data breaches as we have little idea which websites are going to fall victim to cyber attacks next. A more ideal way is to use a strong password and turn on 2FA, so that hackers cannot find their ways into your accounts with just the email address.
How can I improve my online security?
Security starts with passwords. It is best to use a different, strong, complex password for each of your online accounts. Using a password generator is the best practice in this case.
For a more comprehensive strategy, we highly recommend a password manager.
