I created something similar a while back to demonstrate what makes a password secure. It's drastically less sophisticated than this (I wrote it in an hour or so), but it has the same approach - evaluating a password by entropy, not random requirements.
http://files.jjcm.org/jspass/ The important thing I found while testing this was that it was important to tell users why their password sucked. Often times, they'll just keep adding 1's to the end of their password until it's good enough. Let people know, "Your password is in a known list of passwords", rather than, "The entropy of your password is 0." |
