Is the Am I Hacked tool free?

Yes, completely free with no signup, no email required, and no limits. It is part of the free Cyber Kavach security series by Dharmendra Asimi.

Is it private? Where does my data go?

It is 100% private. The entire check runs inside your own browser. Nothing you tick is sent to any server, saved, or stored anywhere. Close the tab and it is gone.

What does the security check cover?

25 checks across five areas: email security (the master key to your accounts), passwords and two-factor authentication, phone hygiene, browser and device safety, and money and UPI protection. Each gap links to a guide on how to fix it.

How is the security score calculated?

Each of the 25 checks is worth 4 points, for a total of 100. Your score rises as you tick items you have already done. Below 41 is high risk, 41 to 64 needs work, 65 to 84 is fairly secure, and 85 or above is well protected. Critical items (like two-factor authentication on email and a UPI app lock) are flagged so you fix the highest-impact gaps first.
