Is MindYourPass Password Firewall safe?
MindYourPass Password Firewall hashes passwords typed on any site and sends the hash and page URL to its own backend for policy checks.
When a password field is used on any http(s) page, the extension computes SHA512/SHA1 hashes of the entered password locally and posts the hash, current URL, password-strength score, and compromise status to api.mindyourpass.io. It also checks the password against the Have I Been Pwned breach database using the standard k-anonymity range API. This is the extension's stated function as a corporate password-policy and breach-monitoring tool, active only when an org-issued license/subscription key is configured; the plaintext password itself is not observed leaving the device.
