   If you've found yourself victim to this recent Facebook breach, or any other, it's recommended that you change your passwords to the affected account and any other account associated with the email address.

   For additional security, a password manager service can be useful in making and securely storing particularly strong and unique passwords that are unlikely to be guessed.

   Whether or not your details show up in the above site's search tool, it's a good idea to practice strong online security either way, and institute two-factor authentication (2FA) in any online service that offers it, ensuring that you'll need a second security check (such as a message sent to your phone) in order to access your account or change your details.
