Create a domain breach report for your company

Learn how to view a list of everyone in your company affected by data breaches.

Set up the domain breach report

Before you can find email addresses affected by data breaches, you’ll need to verify that you control a domain.

Verify a domain

Click Insights in the sidebar in 1Password Business or Dashboard in 1Password Teams. Then click Verify your domain in the “Breach checks” section. Click Get Started and follow the onscreen instructions. You can verify your domain by using:

  • Email: choose an administrative email address to send a verification code to, then click Send Verification Code. Enter the code and click Verify.
  • DNS record: add a DNS text (TXT) record containing the verification string to the domain you want to verify. Create the record at the root (@). Then click Verify.

    It may take up to 24 hours for DNS changes to propagate. To verify your domain later, go to the domain breach report, click Manage Domains, then click Complete Verification. If you need help, check with your DNS provider.

Manage verified domains

To include more than one domain in the report, click Manage Domains > Add Domain, then verify it.

To mark one domain as an alias of another, click next to the domain and choose Mark as Alias. Choose the domain you want to make it an alias of, then click Save.

To remove a domain, click next to it and choose Remove.
