This Internet browser is developing a feature that would warn you if you are about to visit a previously hacked site. Data breaches have been a huge problem for a number of websites this year, making their frequent occurrences difficult to keep up with. If you use Firefox, you could soon be notified if you are about to visit a site that was breached by hackers. The Mozilla team collaborated with leaked password checker Have I Been Pwned to do bring about this technology.
Although this update is still under development, Internet security fans can download the add-on on Github, compile it and add it to Firefox if they have the Developer Edition of the browser.
