🔑 securely checks a password to see if it has been previously exposed in a data breach

• Keeps your password hidden
• Clears your clipboard automatically

Ensure you have Node.js version 5 or higher installed. Then run the following:

$ npm install --global passw0rd

$ passw0rd

$ npm install passw0rd

const passw0rd = require('passw0rd');

passw0rd.check('passw0rd').then(res => {
	console.log(`Password was found ${res.count} times`);
});

Browser

Run the following command to get UMD version of the library under the dist folder

$ npm run build

<script src="https://cdn-path/dist/passw0rd.js"></script>

You can find the library on window.passw0rd. A very simple POC is available at browser.html

Pwned Passwords has implemented a k-Anonymity model that allows a password to be searched for by partial hash. This allows the first 5 characters of a SHA-1 password hash (not case-sensitive) to be passed to the API.

GET https://api.pwnedpasswords.com/range/{first 5 hash chars}

passw0rd is using Pwned Passwords API which searches through a database of more than 500 million passwords collected from various breaches.
