What Is the Digital Exposure Score?
The Digital Exposure Score checks your email against Have I Been Pwned's database of real, recorded data breaches, then combines that with five short questions about things a breach database can't see — your phone number, password habits, and old accounts — to produce a score out of 100. It's not a guessing quiz; the breach part is verified data.
A clear result only means your email wasn't found in known breach records — it doesn't check your phone number or the wider web. For that, the Scan My Shadow paid scan checks your phone number and email across 1,500+ sources. You can also browse our privacy blog or read more about us.
Digital Exposure Check vs. Checker — Same Free Tool
Whether you search for a digital exposure check or a digital exposure checker, this page is the same free tool: run a real breach check on your email, then answer five short questions for your full Digital Exposure Score — free, instant, no sign-up.
What Counts as a Good Digital Exposure Score?
A score in the 80s or above generally means your email hasn't turned up in known breaches and your habits — password reuse, old accounts, 2FA — are in reasonable shape. Scores in the 50s and below usually point to a confirmed breach hit, weak password habits, or several forgotten accounts still holding your data. There's no universal "safe" number — the score is a snapshot meant to show where to focus first, not a guarantee or a replacement for ongoing checks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a high Digital Exposure Score mean I'm completely safe?
Not completely. The Digital Exposure Score reflects known breaches involving your email — it's a real check, not a guess. But it doesn't see everything: your phone number and the wider web aren't included, which is what the full paid scan checks separately.
How often should I run the Digital Exposure Check?
New breaches surface regularly, so this isn't a one-and-done check. Running it every few months — or right after a service you use reports a breach — keeps your score current.
Is the Digital Exposure Checker free to use?
Yes. The breach check and the five-question assessment are both free, with no sign-up required. There's no limit on how often you can run it.
