STOP
STOLEN
PASSWORDS
A cybersecurity initiative to make stolen passwords useless
25+ billion stolen passwords are being used right now to break into accounts. We're working to make every website check if passwords have been stolen before accepting them.
THE SOLUTION
Every website should check if passwords have been stolen before accepting them.
The technology exists. We just need to make it standard practice everywhere.
THE PROBLEM
Millions of accounts are compromised daily using passwords that were already stolen.
Over 25 billion passwords have been stolen from companies like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Yahoo. That's more than 3 passwords for every person on Earth.
Most websites don't check if passwords have been stolen before accepting them. They're literally allowing passwords they know are compromised.
PROOF OF CONCEPT
We built Watchdog to show how password breach checking should work everywhere.
Watchdog checks passwords against known breaches in real-time. It's what we believe every login system should do by default.
