Test Your Password Security Knowledge
Type a password below and see how long it would take a computer to crack it. Learn what makes passwords secure and how to protect your digital identity.
A password with 8 lowercase letters can be cracked in seconds, but adding uppercase, numbers, and symbols increases security dramatically.
Using a passphrase (like "CorrectHorseBatteryStaple") can be both memorable and secure.
Password length is more important than complexity. A 12-character password with mixed characters is much stronger than an 8-character one.
Never reuse passwords across different accounts. If one gets compromised, all your accounts could be at risk.
