This is a little project I started whilst killing time in a hotel room in late 2013 after thinking "I wonder if people actually know where their data has been exposed?" And this is precisely why I'm writing this piece - to talk about how I'm assisting the UK and Australian governments with access to data about their own domains.

(Oh, I think I’ll drop that for 2013 and focus on the ones where I put in serious thought. Overall, I’ve had a pretty good run of it.

Look at these price tags for some of the most expensive data breaches over the last 10 years: Equifax – $700 million settlement, ~143 million people affected, 2017. Target – $300 million, ~40 million customers, 2013. Consumers have more access to information about their rights and demand more transparency. Regulatory fines.

Transparency has been a huge part of that effort and I've always written and spoken candidly about my thought processes, how I handle data and very often, the mechanics of how I've built the service (have a scroll through the HIBP tag on this blog for many examples of each). — Jannis Tenbrink (@the_jannis) October 2, 2017.

Back in 2013, I was beginning to get the sense that data breaches were becoming a big thing. And as I've always done with HIBP, I'm proceeding with complete transparency by detailing that process here.
