We hear about data breaches all the time, but have you ever wondered if you've been a victim or "have I been pwned"? The truth is, most of us have. It's important to know where your information has been compromised so that you can take appropriate action.

With our Bitwarden Data Breach Report you can discover if your email address has been the victim in hundreds of online data breaches using the integrated Bitwarden breach check.

The Bitwarden Data Breach Report shows an account that has been in several online data breaches.

It's simple to use. Just log into the web vault and navigate to ToolsData Breach Report. Your account's email address will be automatically checked against the Have I been pwned? database of online breaches. If breaches are discovered by the Bitwarden check for compromised passwords, you will be given the information that you need to take appropriate actions.

Check it out! And while you're at it, head over to haveibeenpwned.com and subscribe to receive future data breach notifications related to your email address. Your first thought might be about what to do if your email has been pwned and the obvious answer is to change all of your compromised passwords to new, secure passwords and then manage them through Bitwarden.
