Google Chrome Will Soon Tell You When Your Password Is Weak
Chrome will soon be able to show the strength of a password when it's being created. This should make it easier for users to create secure passwords.
Google Chrome has a built-in password manager that stores login details and even suggest passwords, and now it will soon be able to tell users if their password is weak. Password strength is not an uncommon feature as several websites and some password managers are known to alert users when a password they are creating is too weak.
Weak passwords can be repeated passwords, common names, or popular words, making them easy to guess and leaving users susceptible to hacks. To mitigate this, many sites and apps require users to create passwords that are a combination of alphabets (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, and symbols. While they may be hard to remember for those who don't use password managers, they are much safer and harder to guess.
New details found in Chromium OS code by About Chromebooks have revealed ChromeOS will be getting a password strength indicator that shows how strong a password is. Since this feature is coming to Chrome OS, it should be available to Chrome browser users regardless of the platform. While it is a surprise that Chrome has not always had this feature, its impending arrival is better late than never.
Hope these evidences are enough to satisfy you. If you think they are not still enough, follow me keenly and get before you other equally thirst quenching evidences about the subject. In fact you can even educate others about it better than I’m doing. Be concerned about what concerns you yet seek knowledge, for ignorance is a prison wherein the inmates are those who are reluctant when it comes to seeking knowledge. When you learn, you lead others aright and save them from captivity. But you don’t just learn anything, you seek beneficial knowledge and wisdom from the right sources with the proper ethics. Look for the write up on ethics of seeking knowledge. And as usual, when you sleep over the bed of heedlessness in your youth, then be sure to tread on the path of regret during old age.
Let me hasten to reiterate that seeking knowledge frees you from the captivity and prison of ignorance and darkness. So my good friends, brothers and sisters in Islam, seek beneficial knowledge and wisdom with the correct ethics, aiming to benefit society with the knowledge and hoping for reward from the Almighty Allah. Thank you for your patience to read it.
