1. HaveIBeenPwned: https://haveibeenpwned.com - allows you to safely check exiting passwords and email addresses to see if they are in any known breaches.  (Note: Tools like this aren't necessarily guaranteed to be 100% inclusive of all breaches; however, they do tend to have the data from the larger well-known breaches, and if your password(s) is/are found, that is a good indication that it/they needs to be changed.)  If your email address is found in a previous breach, it will tell you exactly what data was also exposed in that breach.
