Password-Checker

Password Checker using Python

This program uses an API to 'You may be using Have I been Pwned'

In order to protect the password being searched for, Pwned Passwords API implements a k-Anonymity model that allows a password to be searched for by partial hash. This allows the first 5 characters of either An SHA-1 or an NTLM hash (not case-sensitive) to be passed to the API.

Hence, only the first 5 characters of the hashed passwords will be sent and the first making it safe to use

Note: Although k anonymity is safe, it is not advised to input your login information on any website other than the one you intended.
