+
+Orion is a simple cli client to check for compromised passwords using Have I
+Been Pwned API.
+
+*Note*: Your password is not sent anywhere, only the first 5 characters of the
+SHA-1 hash of the input is sent to HIBP API.
+
+*Note*: Padding is currently not supported by Orion.
+
+* Working
+- Orion takes input from the user
+- Input is hashed & split (prefix: [:5], suffix: [5:])
+- Prefix is sent to the HIBP API
+- HIBP API returns list of suffixes along with frequency
+- Orion looks for suffix from the list of suffixes
+
+Match means the password is present in HIBP database & has been compromised.
