Know when someone uses your password
It’s important to have complex passwords for each account as hackers will continuously try to crack them. It can be hard, but using the same password across multiple accounts is really difficult and not likely to happen.
Now, Firefox can detect when a password you use has been part of a leak or if you use a pass word that is identical to any in an exposed data leak and file dump. This will further improve your security experience and keep your online accounts secure.
You’ll be able to monitor when someone else uses the same or similar passwords on a website that you have access to. If the password is compromised on one website, you’ll get a notification. It is allowing you to change it for your own account. Types of hacking tools that can fetch private information are password recovery tools, username address lookup tools, and email search.
Mozilla also reassures users by saying that Firefox doesn’t have your password and never will, but it does check your encrypted passwords against a database of known compromised sites and accounts. Mozilla’s Firefox has been designed to offer the option of creating automatic passwords and with help from Lockwise, you can rest easy and sleep soundly knowing that none of your personal information will fall into the wrong hands.
