Worried that your Google login was compromised on the Russian hacker list today?

http://securityalert.knowem.com/ will tell you if your Gmail address was on the list. 

Another tip from Ben Fisher: At the lower right in Gmail you'll see a note with your most recent account activity and a link for "details." Click details and you'll see a log of all recent logins to your account. Look for any from locations you don't recognize.

Of course, it's never a bad idea to change your password, and you should consider implementing Google 2-Step Verification as well: https://www.google.com/landing/2step/

  1. I heard on the national news Google is notifying those that got hacked. At one time I used the  2-step verification with 2 gmail accounts...really annoying procedure and will get on your nerves eventually. It was all the time....couldn't wait to get rid of the procedure! And I had to do some real studying/research to finally put a halt to the 2-step verification process..
