Stop using bad passwords.
PassProtect is a Chrome extension created and maintained by Randall Degges that you can drop into any web page which dramatically improves the security of users accessing your website.
PassProtect works by binding itself to all input elements on the page of type
email or password. Whenever a user enters a new value into one of these
input elements, PassProtect will check the user's email / password against
the fabulous Have I Been Pwned? API service to see whether or not
the user's email OR password has been breached in the past.
Finally, if appropriate, PassProtect will inform the user that their credentials were previously breached, give them some useful information, and ask them to update their password as soon as they can to reduce the risk that their account will be compromised.
PassProtect is a new, experimental way to proactively notify users about data breaches and help casual web users play a more active role in protecting their online accounts.
We believe that by informing and guiding users to reset their credentials when necessary, we can all help make the web a safer place <3
Just head on over to the Chrome webstore and install PassProtect! https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/passprotect/cpimldclklpfifolmdnicjnfbjdepjnf

YES!
PassProtect never sends or stores password information over the network. It uses k-Anonymity to safely communicate your sensitive data over the internet without risk.
PassProtect is also completely free, open source, and maintained by Randall Degges. If you want to audit the source, or have ideas about how to do things better, please open a GitHub issue or email me directly.
Awesome! You might enjoy checking out passprotect-js, it's a developer library that provides the same functionality for websites you're building.
It's really awesome because by dropping a single script tag into your
websites you can instantly enable PassProtect's awesome password protection
functionality across your sites for all of your users. And it's even mobile
friendly!
