This shortcut detects if your password has been cracked without ever sending it off your device. It works by using k- anonymity, hashing the password and then only sending the fist 5 characters of the hash to pwnedpasswords.com. Pwnedpasswords then sends you back a list of all possible matching password hashes back to your device so any matching strings can be detected locally. This way your password is never sent to anyone.
