Comprehensive Password Analysis

This tool provides a multi-faceted analysis of your password's security. It goes beyond simple "strong" or "weak" labels to give you actionable insights. All analysis, including the data breach check, is performed securely without your password ever leaving your browser.

k-Anonymity Explained

For the data breach check, we use a privacy-preserving technique called k-Anonymity. Only the first 5 characters of your password's hash are sent to an API, which returns a list of all breached password hashes starting with those characters. The final check happens locally in your browser, ensuring your full password remains secret.

What Makes a Password Secure?

Length and Complexity

A long password with a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols is harder to crack.

Unpredictability

Avoid common words, patterns (like '12345'), and personal information (birthdays, names).

Uniqueness

Use a different, strong password for every online account to limit damage from a data breach.

Consider Passphrases

A long passphrase of random words (e.g., 'correct horse battery staple') can be both secure and memorable.

Use a Password Manager

Password managers generate and store strong, unique passwords for you, so you only need to remember one master password.
