PassProtect is a developer library created and maintained by Randall Degges that you can drop into any web page which dramatically improves the security of users accessing your website. PassProtect works by binding itself to all input elements on the page of type email or password. Whenever a user enters a new value into one of these input elements, PassProtect will check the user's email / password against the fabulous Have I Been Pwned? API service to see whether or not the user's email OR password has been breached in the past. Finally, if appropriate, PassProtect will inform the user that their credentials were previously breached, give them some useful information, and ask them to update their password as soon as they can to reduce the risk that their account will be compromised. PassProtect is a new, experimental way to proactively notify users about data breaches and help casual web users play a more active role in protecting their online accounts. We believe that by informing and guiding users to reset their credentials when necessary, we can all help make the web a safer place <3.
