Why Choose This Project

Weak or compromised passwords are one of the leading causes of account breaches. Users often reuse passwords or choose easily guessable ones, leaving their accounts vulnerable. This project provides a comprehensive platform to analyze password strength, check against known breached password databases, and provide actionable suggestions for improvement. It is ideal for security-conscious organizations, developers, and end-users to proactively enhance account security.

What You Get

A web-based system where users can enter passwords to evaluate strength based on length, complexity, and entropy. The platform also cross-checks passwords against publicly known breached password datasets to warn users if their password has been exposed in prior data leaks. Administrators can enforce password policies, track usage trends, and generate reports for organizational compliance.

Key Features

Technology Stack

Working Flow

1. User Login – Secure authentication for users/admins.

2. Password Entry – User enters password for evaluation.

3. Strength Analysis – System calculates password entropy, checks for patterns, repetition, and common words.

4. Breach Check – Password is checked against known breached password datasets.

5. Risk Scoring & Recommendations – Assign risk level and suggest improvements if weak or compromised.

6. Reporting & Dashboard – Admins can view trends, common weak passwords, and compliance statistics.

7. Alerts & Notifications – Notify users/admins if passwords are found in breaches.
