How Long to Hack my Password


Ever wondered just how secure your password really is? How long it would take someone to break into your email, facebook, or other sensitive materials that are online?

Find out right here. Simply start typing in your password and the form will tell you about how long it would take a brute force attack to get into your personal business.

Your password can be hacked in at the most
less than one second



Note. All of this is done in your browser so your password never gets sent back to our server. This helps make sure that your password is not sent over the internet and keeps it anonymous.

The calculation for the time it takes to crack your password is done by the assumption that the hacker is using a brute force attack method which is simply trying every possible combination there could be such as:

"aaaaaaaa"
"aaaaaaab"
"aaaaaaac"

And so on.

This is the reason it's important to vary your passwords with numerical, uppercase, lowercase and special characters to make the number of possibilities much, much greater. The larger more obscure the password the greater the curve of time and processing power it will take to crack it. Try our password generator.

Also very important when talking about password security is not to use actual dictionary words. Many hacker programs start with long lists of common passwords and then move on to the whole dictionary. This is much faster than a brute force attack because there are way less options.
