Checking 320M passwords in milliseconds with serverless bloom filters

In plain words

This project demonstrates how to check 320 million passwords against a bloom filter using serverless architecture, completing the verification in milliseconds. It's designed for developers building password security tools or studying efficient data structures at scale. The approach stands out by leveraging serverless computing to handle massive password datasets without maintaining dedicated infrastructure, making it practical for applications that need fast breach-database lookups.
