If you use a computer, you more than likely have a password or a
passphrase. Security is something that people often don't take seriously
enough. Because of this, I have created a couple tools that help to make
things simpler.
You can create high-quality passphrases with a lookup table and a set of
dice. This web page will replace the lookup table, which means you won't
need to print our or reference a 30+ page list of words. It also has the
ability to generate a passphrase for you, word by word.
Calculate the MD5 checksum of a bit of text, password, or whatever you
like. Runs in your browser and nothing is sent back to me, just in case
you need to use it offline.
If you need to make a password, generate random numbers, or create a
hexadecimal key for your wireless LAN, this tool is for you. It is written
in JavaScript and will create random information for you with just a click
of a button.
Do you want to know how secure your new password is? This JavaScript
tool will analyze your password and compare it to a list of common
passwords. Then it will look closer at the letters and the "predictability"
of letter pairs in your words in order to generate a score of how random
your password really is. It will show you the difference between "password"
and "Pa5$w0rD".
