What Is the Password Strength Checker?
It estimates how hard a password would be to guess, looking at length, character variety and common weak patterns. The check runs entirely in your browser - the password is never sent anywhere.
When to Use It
- When choosing a new password.
- To show others why short or predictable passwords are weak.
How to Use It
- Type a password (preferably a test one similar to what you plan to use).
- Read the rating and suggestions.
Understanding the Result
Length matters most: a long passphrase of random words beats a short password full of symbols. Avoid names, dates, keyboard patterns and reused passwords.
Limitations
No checker can know if a password has been leaked. Use a password manager and unique passwords - generate one with the Secure Password Generator.
Examples
| Password | Why | Strength |
|---|---|---|
Password@123 | A common word with the usual substitutions - in every cracking list | Weak |
Asha1990! | Name + year + symbol, easy to guess with personal information | Weak |
q7#Vt!pL2x | Random, but only 10 characters | Fair to good |
lamp-orbit-cactus-violin-harbor | Five random words - long and memorable | Strong |
What Makes a Password Strong
- Length first: each extra character multiplies the number of guesses needed.
- Randomness: chosen by a generator, not by you - people pick predictable patterns.
- Uniqueness: one password per site, so one breach cannot unlock the others.
What a Checker Cannot Tell You
A password can score well and still be unsafe if it has already appeared in a data breach or you have used it before. Use a password manager, turn on two-factor authentication, and check breach services such as Have I Been Pwned.
Create a strong one with the Secure Password Generator, see the maths with the Password Entropy Calculator, and read how to create a strong password.
