<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Many passwords have been discovered by crackers getting into sites and stealing the data files containing usernames, passwords and other information.</p>
<p>This web page will look up your password in those lists, without sending your password. The password you enter never leaves your computer.</p>
<h3>Further information</h3>
<ol>
<li>The password is turned into a numeric representation (called an sha1 digest)</li>
<li>The first 5 digits of that number is sent to <a href='https://www.pwnedpasswords.com>'>https://www.pwnedpasswords.com</a></li>
<li><a href='https://www.pwnedpasswords.com>'>https://www.pwnedpasswords.com</a> returns a list of all digests which begin with that 5 digits</li>
<li>This program then looks to see if any of them match.</li>
<li>The program then tells you whether it found a match or not</li>
</ol>
<p><b>Note:</b> Finding a match only tells you the password is "known" by spammers and crackers. Not finding a match does not mean it is a good password. This only tells you whether the password is on one of lists commonly available on the <emp>Dark Net</emp></p>
<p>This is a free service by <a href='https://dailydata.net'>Daily Data</a>, and relies on the free service located at <a href='https://haveibeenpwned.com/'>https://haveibeenpwned.com/</a>. Troy Hunt, a Microsoft Regional Director, has donated his time and money to collect many of these lists of cracked password and e-mail accounts. Feel free to help him continue these efforts by <a href='https://haveibeenpwned.com/Donate'>donating</a> on his web page.</p>
<p>Want a good password you can remember? Try the free service by Bart Busschots at <a href='https://xkpasswd.net/s/'>https://xkpasswd.net/s/</a></p>
<p>Mr. Hunt will also allow you to check if your e-mail address is on one of the lists he has by going to <a href='https://haveibeenpwned.com/'>https://haveibeenpwned.com/</a></p>
