DataBreach.com Emerges as Alternative to HaveIBeenPwned

Posted on November 7, 2024 by Dissent

Michael Kan reports:

Have I Been Pwned has long been one of the most useful ways to learn if your personal information was exposed in a hack. But a new site offers its own powerful tool to help you check if your data has been leaked to cybercriminals.

DataBreach.com is the work of a New Jersey company called Atlas Privacy, which helps people remove their personal information from the internet. On Wednesday, the company told us it had launched DataBreach.com as an alternative to Have I Been Pwned, which is mainly searchable via the user’s email address.

DataBreach.com is designed to do that and more. In addition to your email address, the site features an advanced search function to see whether your full name, physical address, phone number, Social Security number, IP address, or username are in Atlas Privacy’s extensive library of recorded breaches. More categories will also be added over time.
