Find my iphone alert

My Ipad randomly started dinging overnight with the find my Iphone alert. My email didn’t say anyone accessed my account. Also no one on my account set it off. It just sent an email that notified that it played. I changed my password immediately. I am still nervous that someone has access to my information but it would inform me if someone was able to get into my account, right?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15
