Edge's Password Monitor feature uses homomorphic encryption to match passwords against a database of leaks without revealing anything about those passwords: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/password-monitor-safeguarding-passwords-in-microsoft-edge/ https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/password-monit... So not the first, but definitely cool to see more adoption!
- dagmx 2y agoI believe Safari does the same as well, so not even technically the first at Apple if I’m correct?
- Groxx 2y agoAfter reading the technical details... I'm really not sure tbh: https://support.apple.com/guide/security/password-monitoring-sec78e79fc3b/1/web/1 https://support.apple.com/guide/security/password-monitoring... I'm sure someone here understands that and can answer conclusively, but that's not me today.
- nightpool 2y agoNo, the Apple article says that they're using the much faster and easier to implement k-anonymity strategy
- cedws 2y agoThis is nicer than the k-anonymity algorithm that Have I Been Pwned uses, but probably an order of magnitude more expensive to run.
