How this checker works

We score your password based on length, the variety of character types, and whether it looks like a common or easy-to-guess pattern. Everything runs locally in your browser—your password is never sent to any server.

Use this tool to improve your passwords before saving them in a password manager. For critical accounts, combine a strong password with two-factor authentication.

How this Password Strength Checker works

This security assessment tool analyzes the strength of passwords by estimating resistance to guessing and brute-force attacks. Utilizing algorithms like zxcvbn, it evaluates factors beyond length and variety, such as repeated patterns, common dictionary words, keyboard sequences, and substitution tricks. The tool provides a strength score ("Very Weak" to "Very Strong"), estimates cracking time, and offers specific feedback for improvement. Applications include educating users on password hygiene, auditing credentials before use, and integrating real-time strength meters into signup flows. No password data is sent to any server; all checks are performed locally in the client browser for privacy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a password strength checker work?
It estimates strength based on factors like length, character variety, and common patterns. Many checkers also penalize predictable sequences, repeated characters, and common dictionary words.
What matters most for password strength?
Length matters most. A long passphrase or a long random password usually beats a short complex password. Avoid reused passwords and common words or dates.
Can a password be strong even without symbols?
Yes. A long passphrase can be very strong without symbols. Symbols can help when required, but they do not replace the security benefits of length.
Does this tool store or send my password anywhere?
No. The strength check happens locally in your browser. The password you type is not uploaded or stored on a server.
Is this Password Strength Checker safe to use?
Yes. It runs 100% client-side, so your password stays in your browser and is not uploaded to a server.
