How to Check If Your Password Is Really Strong

2025-11-02

Most websites show a 'strength meter,' but they’re often misleading. True password strength isn’t just about length or symbols — it’s about entropy and randomness.

To test your password properly, you can use the entropy calculator built into PasswordGenetic. It tells you how many bits of randomness your password has and how long it would take a computer to guess it.

If your password is under 60 bits of entropy, it’s considered weak. Aim for 100 bits or higher for critical accounts like banking, cloud storage, or email.
