Use the "passwords" feature to check if one of yours is compromised. If it shows up, never ever reuse those credentials. They'll be baked into thousands of botnets etc. and be forevermore part of automated break-in attempts until one randomly succeeds.
Synthient wasn’t hacked, as a security company, they aggregated tons of stealer logs dumped to social media, Telegram, etc.
They found 8% of the data collected was not in the HIBP database, confirmed with some of the legitimate owners that the data was real.
They then took that research and shared it with HIBP which is the correct thing to do.
I was also thrown off by the title they gave it when I first saw it, a security company being hacked would be a terrible look. but they explain it in the article. Should probably have named it “list aggregation” or something.
so why hibp calls them data breach??? Ultra misleading, almost defamation, everyone including me only reads the headlines
