In April 2025, a leak of 183 million accounts and passwords was revealed, according to Troy Hunt of Have I Been Pwned (HIBP). The leak includes Gmail user passwords.

HIBP allows users to check if their data has been leaked. The files contained website addresses, email addresses, and passwords.

Google emphasizes that the leak affects many types of online services. To protect Gmail users, it is recommended to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) and use passkeys.

To check if your account has been compromised, visit haveibeenpwned.com and enter your address.

In case of theft:

  • Change passwords immediately.
  • Enable two-factor authentication (2FA).
  • Avoid repeated or simple passwords.

Users are advised to check their account activity and use Google's password recovery process.
