How is the crack time estimated?

Crack time is estimated based on current GPU-based brute force speeds (billions of guesses per second). The calculation considers password length, character variety, and entropy to produce a realistic time estimate for a full keyspace search.

Is my password sent to a server?

Absolutely not. The entire analysis runs locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your password is never transmitted, stored, or logged anywhere. This is essential for a tool that handles your most sensitive data.

What makes a password strong?

A strong password is long (12+ characters), uses a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols, avoids dictionary words and common patterns, and has high entropy (randomness). Passphrases (multiple random words) are both strong and memorable.

Should I use a password manager instead?

Yes. Password managers generate and store unique, strong passwords for each account, eliminating the need to remember them. This tool helps you verify that your master password and any manually created passwords meet security standards.

What is password entropy?

Entropy is a mathematical measure of randomness in bits. Higher entropy means more possible combinations and longer crack times. A password with 60+ bits of entropy is considered strong against brute force attacks.
