Password Strength Checker

The Password Strength Checker analyses any password and rates its resistance to guessing. It estimates entropy in bits, calculates how long an offline attack would take, and shows a clear checklist of the criteria your password meets — all without sending the password anywhere.

How password strength is measured

Strength comes down to entropy — the number of equally likely possibilities an attacker must search. This tool estimates entropy from the password's length and the size of its character pool (lowercase, uppercase, digits and symbols), then converts that into an estimated offline crack time at roughly 10 billion guesses per second.

It also penalises common passwords and obvious patterns like repeated characters or sequences (abc, 123, qwerty), which real attackers try first.

What makes a strong password

  • Length matters most — aim for 12+ characters, ideally 16 or more
  • Mix character types: lowercase, uppercase, numbers and symbols
  • Avoid dictionary words, names, dates and keyboard patterns
  • Use a unique password for every account
  • A passphrase of 4+ random words is both strong and memorable

Is it safe to type my password here?

Yes. The analysis runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript. Your password is never transmitted to a server, logged or stored — close the tab and it is gone.
