How the score works

Entropy comes from length and the size of the character space. Predictable structure is then subtracted: common passwords, repeated units, character runs, low character variety and trailing years. That is why a long password can still score poorly.

What is the Password Generator?

A password generator creates credentials from cryptographically secure randomness rather than anything a person could guess or a pattern an attacker could predict. The strength checker scores a password by entropy, then subtracts for the patterns that make one weak in practice: dictionary words, repeats, keyboard runs and trailing years.

Frequently asked questions

Is it safe to check my real password on a website?

On this one, yes, because the scoring is a local calculation — the password is never sent anywhere, not even to this site's own server, and is never stored. As a general habit, though, never type a real password into a tool that cannot demonstrate that.

Which is stronger, a random password or a passphrase?

Per character a random string is stronger, but per unit of human effort a passphrase usually wins because you can make it much longer without forgetting it. Five random words carry roughly 64 bits of entropy and are far easier to type on a phone than 12 random symbols.

How long should a password be?

Sixteen characters or more for anything that matters, and longer for a passphrase. Length beats complexity: adding characters increases the search space faster than swapping an "a" for an "@", which attackers already account for.
