Have I Been Pwned (HIBP) has onboarded the Nepalese Government to its free gov service, marking the 47th government to join. The country's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) will now have access to monitor Nepalese government domains against data within HIBP.

This integration allows the NCSC to identify exposure of government email addresses and respond swiftly when these accounts appear in new data breaches. The HIBP government service is designed to assist national cyber teams in enhancing threat monitoring and incident response by offering visibility into compromised credentials and breached accounts across their government domains.

Nepal now joins a growing roster of governments and national cybersecurity agencies leveraging HIBP to better comprehend their exposure, safeguard government departments and public resources, and mitigate the risks associated with compromised credentials before they can be exploited by malicious actors.
