56 Million Emails Compromised and 124 Million Passwords Exposed in Massive Malware Theft – Here’s How To See If You’re Affected

A massive pile of data stolen from millions of people’s devices has just been added to a major breach database.

The dataset contains 56 million unique email addresses and 124 million unique passwords across hundreds of millions of records, collected from various infostealer malware sources.

Individuals can check if their email appears in the records on Have I Been Pwned to see if they are affected.

The passwords from the collection have also been added to Have I Been Pwned’s searchable password database.

Users can search specific passwords on the site to check if they have been hacked, but the actual passwords are not shown when searching by email.

This aggregated update of compromised credentials underscores the constant threat of malware attacks.

Users are strongly advised to change passwords immediately on every affected account and enable two-factor authentication wherever supported.
