Password Strength Checker
How is Password Strength Calculated?
This tool uses the zxcvbn library β the same algorithm used by major sites like Dropbox. Instead of simple rules ("must have 1 uppercase"), zxcvbn analyzes patterns like dictionary words, keyboard sequences, dates, and common substitutions to estimate how many guesses an attacker would need. The crack time is estimated against an offline slow-hash attack at 10,000 guesses/second.
How to Use the Password Strength Checker
-
Type or paste a password into the field above.
-
The strength score (0β4), crack time, and entropy are shown instantly.
-
Read the warning and suggestions to understand weaknesses.
-
Nothing is sent to any server β all analysis runs in your browser.
Entropy measures the unpredictability of your password in bits β the higher, the better. A charset size of 94 means you're using all printable ASCII characters.
