Before you connect
Questions about Have I Been Pwned.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can I check if my email was leaked with Have I Been Pwned?
Yes, you can check any email address. The Connector will scan the database and tell you every time that email appeared in a breach, including what kind of data was exposed.
Is it safe to check passwords with this Connector?
It is very safe. The Connector uses a K-Anonymity model, which means your actual password is never sent to any external server. Your AI client only receives a simple confirmation.
How does the K-Anonymity work for Have I Been Pwned?
K-Anonymity works by grouping your password with others like it. It checks if that group exists in a breach database. This allows the service to tell you if your password is leaked without ever seeing it.
Can I see a list of all data breaches?
You can request a full list of all recorded breaches. The AI will pull the data and show you the history of major leaks, which helps you understand the scale of historical security issues.
Does this check Pastebin for my info?
Yes, the Connector can search for your account information on public paste sites. It checks places like Pastebin to see if your details are being shared publicly by others.
How do I get an API key for Have I Been Pwned?
You can get your API key by visiting the official Have I Been Pwned website. Once you have it, you just need to add it to your Connector configuration to start using the capabilities.
Is it safe to check my password using this capability?
Yes. This agent uses the K-Anonymity model. Only the first 5 characters of your password's SHA-1 hash are sent to the HIBP server. The full password or full hash never leaves your local environment, making it cryptographically safe.
Where can I get an API Key?
You can purchase an API key directly from the HIBP website. It requires a small monthly subscription to prevent mass scraping and abuse.
