Mozilla has announced the launch of Firefox Monitor, a service that lets you know if your information has been part of a data breach.

Data breaches, when information like your username and password are stolen from a website you use, are an unfortunate part of life on the internet today. It can be hard to keep track of when your information has been stolen, so we’re going to help by launching Firefox Monitor, a free service that notifies people when they’ve been part of a data breach. After testing this summer, the results and positive attention gave us the confidence we needed to know this was a feature we wanted to give to all of our users.

You can visit http://monitor.firefox.com/ to find out if your data has been breached and signup for future notifications.
