Dashlane sends you alerts to help keep your account and data secure. We offer different types of alerts depending on your plan. Some alerts require you or the admin of your Dashlane professional plan to set up the alert.
What security alerts does Dashlane offer?
I received a message in Slack
Dashlane sends you a security alert in Slack when you have a compromised, weak, or reused password for any login stored in your Dashlane vault. We also call these alerts "nudges." You’ll get these alerts only if your organization has set them up, and if you're part of a Business or Business Plus plan.

I received a security alert when autofilling a password
If your password has been involved in a security breach, you'll see a Compromised label in the autofill pop-up. After autofilling the password, you'll see a security alert with more information. You'll see this alert every time you log in until you change your password. These alerts are available to Business Plus members only, and they appear only in web browsers where you're using the Dashlane extension.

I received a security alert in the Dashlane app
All Dashlane customers, including Dashlane Free users, get standard security alerts and Dark Web Monitoring for Master Password:
- Standard security alerts notify you when apps or websites you use experience a security breach, potentially exposing your data. An alert about compromised passwords appears in a pop-up the next time you open Dashlane. Alerts also appear in the Password Health section of your account when you open the Compromised tab.

More about Password Health - Dark Web Monitoring for Master Password uses a highly secure process to check if a password matching your Master Password has been found on the dark web. This process ensures your password isn’t revealed to anyone, including Dashlane.
Customers with paid Dashlane plans can set up general Dark Web Monitoring. Dashlane scans the web for any of your personal information that someone else may have accessed illegally. If your personal information appears on the dark web, your data may have been involved in a breach, and we'll send you an alert in the Dashlane app.
Important: All Dashlane security alerts follow our zero-knowledge principle. We identify logins involved in breaches without ever having access to your passwords or other data stored in your Dashlane account.
