• In this project, I have created a Python script that reads a bunch of passwords from the text file.
• To check whether the password has been compromised in attack before.
• An API call is made with the first 5 characters of hashed version of the given password
• All the passwords which have matching first 5 characters are fetched.
• They are then compared with the remaining characters of the hashed password to see if there exists a match.
