How can my account details get hacked?👀

Every year, billions of login details from hundreds of websites are taken in hacker attacks. These stolen email addresses, passwords, and other account details are then exposed on the dark web or sold on the black market, where criminals pay to gain access to your sensitive data. Companies or organizations you do business with can also leak or publish their users’ sensitive information by accident.

If criminals get a hold of one of your accounts, they can potentially impersonate you, message your contacts, access your cloud storage, steal your money, and even jump to your other accounts. That’s why we take password safety so seriously.
