Similar to the existing function of HIBP (Have I Been Pwned), Firefox Monitor allows users to enter their email addresses to check if they’re part of hacker databases that have been publicly released.
Firefox Monitor users can see the details on sites and other sources of breaches and the types of personal data exposed in each breach, and receive recommendations on what to do in the case of a data breach.
Mozilla said it is also considering a service to notify people when new breaches include their personal data
Mozilla said currently it is testing initial designs of the Firefox Monitor tool – but beginning next week, the company will invite approximately 250,000 users, mainly U.S.-based, to try it out.
