Check Your Passwords: A Simple Way to Stay Safer Online

We all know strong passwords are important — but how often do we actually check if ours are up to scratch? With so many accounts to manage these days, it’s easy to fall into bad habits like reusing passwords or sticking with ones that are a bit too simple.

That’s where Google Password Checkup comes in. It’s a free tool that takes just seconds to use, and it can flag any weak or compromised passwords you might have without you having to do any of the hard work.

So, what does it actually do?

Google Password Checkup reviews the passwords saved to your Google account and checks for a few key things:

1. Have any of your passwords been leaked in a data breach?
   It’ll let you know if any of your login details have been exposed.

2. Are you using the same password on more than one site?
   Reusing passwords is risky — if one account gets hacked, others could follow.

3. Are your passwords too weak or easy to guess?
   It highlights ones that could do with an upgrade.

Why should you care?

It’s quick, free, and doesn’t require any downloads. Plus, the tool gives you clear, easy-to-follow advice on how to fix any issues it finds.

Whether you're keeping your personal logins safe or looking after a team's online accounts, a quick password check-up could save you a lot of trouble down the line.
