Have I Been Pwned (HIBP) is a data breach "search engine" that allows anyone to submit their email address to see if any links to a data breach are publicly known. HIBP is a free service that can give you an overview of whether or not it is likely your online accounts have been "pwned," or compromised, in a data breach.
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has admitted there have been more than 12 times as many data breaches linked to its Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy (Arap) programme than previously thought. Until now, a total of four breaches were known to have hit Arap, a scheme established back in April 2021 to bring Afghan citizens at risk of Taliban persecution to safety in the UK. However, according to Freedom of Information (FoI) figures released to the BBC, the true number is actually 49.
