Compromised passwords pose a significant threat to the security of organizations and individuals and as time ticks on, the list of exposed passwords continues to grow at an alarming rate. In fact, according to the Verizon Data Breach report, 81% of hacking-related breaches leveraged either stolen and/or weak passwords.
Exposed password screening and compromised credential screening is starting to become more widely used due to its ability to alert users when their password has been exposed and is therefore no longer safe to use.
