Even with strong personal security, data breaches are common. Google now offers a Dark Web Report for its users, notifying them of potential data compromises, making it convenient and trustworthy.

Free Google accounts can use Dark Web Reports, but continuous monitoring and advanced searches require a paid Google One account. 

Paid Google Drive account has now been converted to Google One accounts, so if you're paying for extra Google Drive space, you can get the full Dark Web Scan feature.

Steps to run Dark Web Scan on your Google One Account specifically for web: 1. Go to One.Google.com 2. Click on Try now below Dark Web report 3. Click on Run Scan

For paid accounts, you can choose what additional information to search for in your account. You can also add missing details, like your Social Security number, to be included in the search.
