Crypt - Passwords made simple

Welcome to Crypt, a simple, free to use password tool which analises passwords and returns a score, which can be interpreted by your application however needed.

The algorithm only requires:

  • A password (input) Then, it'll output:
  • A score (based on how strong the password is)
  • A reccomendation on how to improve the score (this may not always be available - particularly for stronger passwords).

Other questions you may have:

How does the scoring work? The scores are based on a range of factors such as:

  • Length of the password
  • Contents of the password
  • Presence of common phrases ("Password", "Qwerty", "12345" etc)

What is a good score? Generally, a strong password has a score of at least 10; however, this can vary from application to application.

What's the highest possible score? There is no highest score a password can have, the score simply increases based on how complex the algorithm believes it is.


Got any other questions? Feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to try and help :)
