On Saturday, April 3, Business Insider reported that the phone numbers and personal information of half a billion Facebook users were stolen and posted online in an unprecedented security breach.\u00a0Now every social media account can be made public.<\/p>\n
However, there are services that will help you find out if specific personal data has been compromised.\u00a0And one of them is the site for tracking information leakage Have I Been Pwned.\u00a0It is enough\u00a0to go to the page<\/a>\u00a0and enter your email address almost to find out whether the account was involved in the Facebook hack or not.\u00a0In addition, the site provides information about other violations as a result of which personal data could be compromised.<\/p>\n Also, users can check the security of their page using a mobile phone.\u00a0To do this, you need to enter your number without hyphens and dots, before which you should indicate the international country code.<\/p>\n It is worth noting that I Been Pwned does not harm users.\u00a0This site has established itself as a reliable assistant in the search for leaked information.\u00a0What’s more, its creator, Troy Hunt, is the Regional Director for Microsoft Australia.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve had a heap of queries about this. I\u2019m looking into it and yes, if it\u2019s legit and suitable for @haveibeenpwned<\/a> it\u2019ll be searchable there shortly. https:\/\/t.co\/QPLZdXATpt<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Troy Hunt (@troyhunt) April 3, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
