Breach Scanner
Continuous monitoring of security breaches across every account tied to your emails.
What it is
The Breach Scanner compares the emails you monitor against known breach databases. When one of your emails shows up in a breach, it's logged in your dashboard so you can act: change passwords, revoke sessions, or mark it resolved once handled.
You can monitor multiple emails from the "Breach Scanner" section of your dashboard.
Email verification
To monitor an email we need to confirm you control it. When you add one, we send a verification link — until you confirm it, that email isn't included in scanning.
- Verified
- The email is confirmed and actively scanned for breaches.
- Unverified
- Not confirmed yet. Use the envelope icon in the row to resend the verification email (once every 5 minutes).
Breach lifecycle
- Pending
- Your email appears in this breach and you haven't taken action yet. This negatively affects your security score.
- Resolved
- You've handled the breach (e.g. changed the password). Mark it resolved with the toggle to improve your score.
Security score
We calculate the percentage of breaches resolved out of the total detected. The more breaches you resolve, the better your score. An unverified email also penalizes the score, since we can't guarantee you're its owner.
A+
100% resolved
A / B
60–99% resolved
C
40–59% resolved
D
Under 40%
Frequently asked questions
How often is the scan updated?
Results are cached for up to 24 hours. If you just added a verified email, the first scan may take a few minutes to appear.
Not receiving the verification email?
Check your spam folder. If it's not there, use the envelope icon in the table to resend it. You can resend once every 5 minutes.
What should I do when I detect a breach?
Change the password for the affected service and mark the breach resolved in the dashboard. If you reused that password elsewhere, change it there too.
