Have I Been Pwned (HIBP) is an excellent service that checks your email against known data breaches. But it shows only part of the picture. CyberPeople's Am I Breached? checks two types of threats:
- Data breaches — when hackers compromise a company's database and steal millions of user records (emails, passwords, personal data).
- Infostealer malware — malware like RedLine, Raccoon, Vidar, and Lumma that silently runs on your device, stealing saved passwords, cookies, session tokens, and credit card data directly from your browser.
Infostealers are the #1 initial access threat in 2025-2026. They don't compromise old databases — they compromise your device right now. Changing your password after a database breach won't help if a stealer captures the new password minutes after you set it.
Infostealer malware is a type of malicious software that silently runs on an infected device, stealing passwords, browser cookies, session tokens, credit card details, and autofill data. Unlike data breaches that target company databases, infostealers compromise individual devices directly.
Major infostealer families include RedLine, Raccoon, Vidar, and Lumma. They spread through phishing emails, pirated software, and malvertising. Stolen data (stealer logs) is sold on underground markets within days of infection.
How do I check if my email has been breached?
Enter your email address in the search field above. Our tool checks it against known data breaches and infostealer malware logs, then shows which incidents exposed your data and what information was compromised.
Is this breach check tool free?
Yes, the Am I Breached? tool is completely free with no registration required. Enter your email and get instant results.
Does this tool store my email address?
No. Your email is checked in real time and is not stored in our database.
What is the difference between a data breach and an infostealer?
A data breach occurs when a company's database is hacked and user data is stolen in bulk. An infostealer is malware installed on your personal device that silently steals passwords, cookies, and session tokens directly from your browser. Our tool checks for both threats.
How is the password checked?
Your password is hashed (SHA-1) directly in your browser. Only the first 5 characters of the hash are sent to the server. This is called k-anonymity — your password never leaves your device.
