Frequently Asked Questions
Is the password stored?
No.
Is the score a guarantee?
No. Real-world security also depends on breached-password databases and authentication controls.
What strength means here
The estimate is based on length and the kinds of characters used. Length matters most: a long passphrase of several unrelated words is usually stronger and easier to remember than a short, complicated string.
The estimate cannot know whether a password has already leaked or is a common pattern. Use a unique password for every account and turn on two-factor authentication where you can.
