Frequently asked questions

Is a passphrase safer than a password?

A passphrase of 5 or more random words is as strong as a long random password and much easier to type and remember. The words must be picked at random, not chosen by you.

How many words should a passphrase have?

Five words give about 50 bits of strength with this word list, and six about 60. Use six or more for a password manager's master password.

Can I use a famous quote or song line as a passphrase?

No. Attackers try well-known phrases, quotes and lyrics first. Random words from a generator are far harder to guess.
