Data leak

Hello I was wondering if you can help me, I have has a notification on my phone saying that there’s been a data leak and my passwords for everything I have saved need changing. Can I ask how this has happened also is there any better way to change over 70 + passwords?

That alert means Apple found your password to be unsecured, but it wasn’t an Apple data leak. Read more about it at https://www.google.com/amp/s/9to5mac.com/2020/07/04/ios-14-icloud-keychain-now-alerts-users-about-leaked-passwords-more/amp/


As for how to change passwords, you’ll do it account by account. It’s also best not to use the same password for everything.
