π Security Philosophy
We balance two critical factors in password design:
Memorability
Passwords composed of actual words are easier to remember than random character strings. By using curated word lists like Oxford 3000, users can create passwords that stick in memory without needing to write them down.
Robustness
Strong passwords resist brute-force attacks through:
- Length: Multiple words create longer passwords
- Complexity: Leet speak and mixed casing add character variety
- Entropy: High bit entropy ensures cryptographic strength
Example: Sunset-Mountain-River β Suns3t@M0unt@in-R1ver!
