How are my password secure in password manager?
Terminée
Hi. I get frequent alerts that some of my passwords are re-used. I can understand this because all the passwords are in the same database and the tool can easily see duplicates.
However, I also got an alert that one email address and password were found on the dark web. I changed it; that's not the only issue. If my passwords are saved with zero-knowledge encryption and Avira team cannot see them, how does the tool check for them on the dark web?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, we cannot answer your question about password search technology.
How software manufacturers proceed with warnings to detect the misuse of passwords would be a question for the software manufacturers' technicians.
