# December 2025 spotlight: Weak passwords? ## Featured Highlights #### **Bitwarden tells you exactly which passwords to fix and how to do it** Weak, reused, or exposed passwords are the easiest way to get hacked. Bitwarden now flags at-risk logins right in your vault (web app, browser extension, desktop), then guides you step-by-step to replace them. Bitwarden will automatically redirect you to the at-risk account’s change password page, autofill your current password, and generate a secure replacement, offering fast, guided protection against brute force attacks and credential stuffing. It’s available now for Premium and Families. Already included, no setup required.
