Scan your passwords to find weak links

Password Health is a NordPass Premium feature that scans all passwords stored in your vault and checks how vulnerable they are. Once the scan is complete, your vulnerable passwords will be divided into Exposed, Weak, and Reused passwords.

The Exposed Passwords section securely checks your saved passwords against a comprehensive database of compromised credentials using the information sourced from the dark web. This feature checks whether any of your passwords have been compromised, even if the breach involved another person with the same password. If a match is found, you’ll be able to change the password in question.

If you have any weak passwords, that means they are not long enough and don’t contain a mixture of numbers, upper and lowercase letters, and symbols. The Reused tab shows you which of your accounts use the same password. Reusing passwords for multiple accounts puts you at great risk if any of those accounts are compromised. We recommend using a unique email and password combination for your accounts.

Passwords that fall under any of the three categories are considered vulnerable, and we recommend changing them. You can use the built-in NordPass Password Generator to help you create strong and unique passwords.

With the NordPass Business solution, Owners and Admins can identify if any of the company’s passwords are vulnerable and act to prevent any possible cybersecurity threats before it is too late. Likewise, they can identify which passwords are expired and should be updated following the standards set out by company-wide Password Policy.

The Password Health feature is a core tool which helps organization Owners and Admins determine any vulnerability vectors that are related to passwords.
