After re-Chroming its Edge browser last summer, Microsoft this week announced a list of new security and privacy features it plans to add to forthcoming versions in an effort to take on its rivals. The third is called Password Monitor, a feature that will tell Edge users when usernames and passwords they've entered on a website have been found on the dark web.
While the affected service may reset passwords to prevent abuse, it's not uncommon for users to set the same password for other websites as well, leaving them exposed to credential stuffing attacks. Microsoft says the Password Monitor feature in Edge will notify users if the password they are entering using autofill has been offered for sale on dark web sites.
