Continuing with the launch of the Have I Been Pwned Domain Search API to national government cyber agencies, I am very happy to welcome the first Latin American country on board, the Dominican Republic. Their National Cybersecurity Incident Response Team (CSIRT-RD) is the 18th national CERT that has free and open access to domain inquiries across all of its government assets. Each of these announcements results in a large number of additional government requests. I will continue to welcome new...
This week is the culmination of planning that began all the way back in August last year when I announced the intention to start open sourcing the HIBP code base [https://www.troyhunt.com/im-open-sourcing-the-have-i-been-pwned-code-base/]. Today, it's finally happened with Pwned Passwords now completely open to all. That's only been possible with the help of the .NET Foundation because as I've said many times now, this is new territory for me. And just to make things really interesting, we're a...
I've got 2 massive things to announce today that have been a long time in the works and by pure coincidence, have aligned such that I can share them together here today. One you would have been waiting for and one totally out of left field. Both these announcements are being made at a time where Pwned Passwords is seeing unprecedented growth: > Getting closer and closer to the 1B requests a month mark for @haveibeenpwned [https://twitter.com/haveibeenpwned?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw]'s Pwned Passwords...
Today I'm very happy to welcome the first Caribbean government to Have I Been Pwned, Trinidad & Tobago. As of today, the Trinidad and Tobago Cyber Security Incident Response Team (TT-CSIRT) has full and free access to query their government domains and gain visibility into where they've impacted by data breaches. This brings the number of governments to be onboarded to HIBP to 17 and I look forward to welcoming more in the near future....
For a week where I didn't think I had much to talk about, I was surprised by what I ended up with by the time I sat down to broadcast. Turns out there's always a lot to discuss, and that's before questions from the live audience as well. As I allude to at the end of this update, next week I'm going to have something really, really cool to announce that has been a long time in the works so keep an eye out for that one 😎 [https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/troy-hunts-weekly-update-podcast/id11...
Today I'm very happy to welcome the 16th government to Have I Been Pwned, Sweden. The Swedish National Computer Security Incident Response Team CERT-SE now has full and free access to query all government domains via HIBP's API and gain insights into the impact of data breaches on their government departments. Sweden is now the 4th Scandinavian country I've welcomed onto HIBP and I hope to see many more from other parts of the world join in the future....
This one is a real short intro as right now, it hurts to type (copy and paste is earlier 😊): I’m Back at a *REAL* Conference; Dealing with RSI; Shellies and MQTT; My IoT Aircon Hack; Drowning in Data Breaches.

A fairly hectic week this one, in a large part due to chasing down really flakey network issues that are causing devices (namely Shelly relays) to be inaccessible. I suspect it's ARP related and as of now, it's still not fully resolved. You know how much shit breaks in a connected house when devices become inaccessible? Lots. But hey, at least I've finally automated my aircon! [https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/troy-hunts-weekly-update-podcast/id1176454699] [https://playmusic.app.goo.gl/?ibi...
What. A. Week. Heaps of data breaches, heaps of law enforcement and gov stuff and somehow, I still found time to put even more IP addresses into the house courtesy of even more IoT. I'm not sure if the latter gives me a break from the more professional tech stuff or just compounds the amount of stuff I've already got on my plate, but I'm having fun doing it anyway 😊 All that and more in this week's update.

Today I'm very happy to announce the arrival of the 15th government to Have I Been Pwned, Romania. As of now, CERT-RO has access to query all Romanian government domains across HIBP and subscribe them for future notifications when subsequent data breaches affect aliases on those domains. Romania joins a steadily growing number of governments across the globe to have free and unrestricted access to API-based domain searches for their assets in HIBP. You can read more about government access in t...
