  • check if a password is known from a breach against HaveIBeenPwnd.com
    • does not sent passwords to HaveIBeenPwnd.com

    • does not sent complete password hashes to HaveIBeenPwnd.com

$ pip install haveibeenpwnd

This add shortcuts to haveibeenpwnd, so that you call haveibeenpwnd from everywhere. To check a password, simply do this:

$ haveibeenpwnd --password hunter2
The password was found 16092 times in the haveibeenpwned.com database.
