RELATED READING: Google adds password breach alerts to Chrome for Android, iOS The feature – which is part of the release of Chrome 79 to the stable channel for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS – has been made available for everyone who’s logged into the browser. Now, however, the company is making it even easier to find out if your username/password combinations may have been exposed. In October, Google integrated the feature into Google Accounts, giving users an easy way of checking whether their saved passwords may have been leaked or stolen, as well as help them determine if their login credentials are weak or reused in multiple accounts. The functionality builds on Chrome’s Password Checkup browser extension, which was rolled out in February of this year and has since been downloaded a little over a million times. This may sound familiar, and with good reason. Google has added a new feature to its Chrome web browser that will alert users if their login credentials have been compromised in a security breach, according to the company’s announcement.
