I know what a majority of you will think that you guys are secure you think before clicking on a link, you have an antivirus to protect from spyware or you know about social engineering or you have 100 character password yes there is a chance that you can still be hacked. Because not all hacks happen on your part some happen because of the website you create an account on. Some hackers over the course if years were successful in hacking some major site and gaining access to there users account credentials and majority of people use the same password which lets a hacker gain access to there entire life in a matter of second. The biggest problem with these breaches is that their data is freely available on the entire deep web it is sold for as little as 20$ for the entire database

Some of the largest hacks




Now we have known that there is a chance we have already been hacked. How can we confirm that whether we have actually been hacked or not there is a website which has the largest collection of the hacked database which allows you to run your email if any of the hacked databases have your email the website will warn you lets check an account


Step: 1 Open the website of HIBP

Step:3 Click and pwned 


Now you can see the results it says that the password has appeared in 67 Breached sites and 176 paste, to simplify

Paste = A "paste" is information that has been "pasted" to a publicly facing website designed to share content such as Pastebin. These services are favored by hackers due to the ease of anonymously sharing information and they're frequently the first place a breach appears.

Breached sites = An actual website being hacked and its database being stolen and publicly available in dark web or sometimes available in indexed internet

  yourself from these security breaches
