Password Auditor
This tool helps detect weak and default passwords on your own systems. Paste the list of accounts (login + password) and you will receive a report on the weakest credentials and suggestions for strengthening them. The tool does NOT perform any remote logins - the analysis takes place only locally on the provided list.
Analysis options
No clearly weak or default passwords were detected based on the list provided. Remember, however, that the analysis is heuristic and does not replace the organization's password policy.

Password Auditor is a practical password checking tool that analyzes your list of logins and passwords for default combinations, very common passwords, and overall strength and complexity, so you can quickly identify the weakest credentials in your systems and keep your accounts secure before someone uses too simple a password.
The tool is designed for system administrators, security teams, online store owners and people responsible for protecting user accounts who want to conduct a password audit in a controlled way, without sending data to external services and without the need to install additional software, and at the same time want the result to be clear, understandable and immediately indicate where the greatest risk lies. Just paste the list of credentials in the login;password or login:password format, set the minimum recommended password length and choose whether you want to detect default combinations, very common passwords and assess the strength of each entry, and Password Auditor will build a transparent report showing how many very weak, average, and strong passwords you have, and which specific logins require an urgent password change.
How does Password Auditor work and what exactly does it analyze in your passwords
Password Auditor takes your pasted list of credentials, separates the login from the password line by line, removes empty entries, normalizes the format and on this basis performs a local analysis thanks to which, without touching the real login system, you can see where users made the most serious mistakes, using default combinations, too short passwords, simple keyboard patterns or passwords virtually identical to the login.
Detecting default logins and passwords
- Password Auditor checks whether the credentials do not include typical default sets such as admin/admin, admin/password, root/root, user/test or similar, which often remain in systems after implementation because no one changed them after the first login.
- Default login/password combinations are one of the first things an attacker checks, so the tool highlights them as critical so you can immediately search for them and force specific users to safely change their passwords.
- In the report, you will find a separate module with the number of detected default credentials, which helps you quickly assess whether the problem concerns one test account or rather entire groups of users who use factory logins and passwords.
Identification of very common passwords
- The tool uses a list of very common passwords such as 123456, qwerty, password, abc123 and similar, which have appeared in password leak reports for years and are widely considered to be extremely dangerous, but are still used by many users.
- If your list includes such obvious passwords, Password Auditor will flag them as high-risk and include them in both the summary and the riskiest credentials section, so you immediately know which accounts to prioritize.
- In the patterns module, you will also see the aggregate number of credentials with very common passwords, which will help you assess whether the problem is isolated or whether a stricter password policy across the organization and additional user training is necessary.
Password Strength and Credential Complexity Assessment
When you have password strength assessment enabled, Password Auditor analyzes each password for length, character variation, and login similarity, giving you a clear rating of very weak, weak, medium, or strong, rather than raw technical values that are difficult for a non-technical person to interpret. The tool checks whether the password contains lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers and special characters, whether it is too short in relation to the declared minimum length and whether it is almost identical to the login, which in practice makes such a password very easy to guess.
Password masking in results and a clear report
In the results tables, passwords are masked, which means that you see their structure and length in a simplified form, but not the full text, and next to it you get a strength rating and a list of reasons why a given password was classified as weak, for example, too short a string of characters, lack of numbers, lack of capital letters, similarity to the login or use of a password from the list of the most popular ones. Thanks to this, you can more safely show the audit result to your superiors or team without discovering real passwords, and at the same time clearly indicate which accounts require an immediate password change and what specific weakness should be explained to the user during communication.
How to use Password Auditor step by step
The tool's interface has been designed so that password auditing does not require multi-step configuration, complicated forms or knowledge of advanced security tools, so the entire procedure comes down to a few simple steps that you can perform periodically after each change of password policy, after system migration or after introducing new security rules in the organization.
- Prepare a list of credentials in login;password or login:password format, for example exported from your internal system only for accounts you are responsible for, ensuring that data is secured and processed in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.
- Paste the prepared list into the text field in Password Auditor, you can use one line with one login and password for a quick check, or a whole group of credentials if you are doing a larger password security audit in the company.
- Check your analysis settings by enabling or disabling detection of default login/password combinations, detection of very common passwords, and detailed strength assessment to tailor the analysis to your scenario, such as a quick review or a deeper audit.
- Set the minimum recommended password length, for example 10 or 12 characters, in accordance with your organization's password policy, as this value will determine which passwords are flagged as too short and need to be changed.
- Click the analyze button, wait for Password Auditor to calculate the results and generate the report, then go through the summary section, the most serious issues module, and the raw list, which contains the score for all credentials analyzed.
- Based on the report, prepare an action plan, such as a list of users who should be forced to change their password, changes to the password policy, an additional educational campaign, or revoking access for test accounts that accidentally ended up in the production environment.
How to read a password audit report and what to look out for
The report generated by Password Auditor is divided into logical sections that allow you to quickly understand the overall status of passwords in your system, and then drill down to the specifics: a list of the riskiest credentials, common user error patterns, and a raw list that provides a strength rating for each individual login.
| Report section | What | shows Why it's important |
|---|---|---|
| Analysis summary | The total number of credentials and the number of very weak, weak, medium and strong passwords, as well as the number of default login/password combinations and the number of passwords with the most common problems. | This section allows you to assess in a few seconds whether your password database looks relatively healthy or whether it is dominated by the very weak and weak categories, which usually means an urgent need to adjust your password policy and additional educational activities. |
| Riskiest credentials | A list of logins whose passwords are particularly problematic, such as default, very common, extremely short, almost identical to the login, or constructed from overly simple patterns, with an additional list of reasons for each line. | This is the section you should start with, because the credentials indicated here are the easiest to guess and may be the weakest link in the entire system, even if the rest of the passwords look good. |
| Common problems detected in passwords | Patterns module showing how many credentials there are for a given type of problem, such as passwords that are too short, low complexity, login similarity, default combinations, or passwords from a very common list. | Thanks to this, you can decide whether it is enough to make single-point changes to individual users, or whether it is necessary to modify the entire password policy and clear communication about what minimum should be met by all users. |
| Raw list with strength rating | A complete list of parsed credentials, where each login is assigned a masked version of the password, a strength rating, and a list of detected issues, with the ability to sort or browse from top to bottom. | This section is especially useful when you are creating a report for documentation or want to provide information to a specific person or team that manages accounts, because you can see exactly which logins are affected by each problem. |
Who is Password Auditor for and when is it worth using
Password Auditor is useful wherever the security of user accounts is of key importance, i.e. in online stores, administration panels, corporate systems, SaaS applications and any services that you make available to users via login and password, and you want to be sure that there are no obvious errors on the user's side that increase the risk of hacking.
Examples of password audit applications
- Periodic password audit in the company system, which allows you to detect weak user passwords and plan their change before a security incident occurs.
- Checking the passwords of technical and administrative accounts after implementing new software to make sure that the default logins and passwords from the manufacturer's documentation are not left anywhere.
- Analyze a selected group of accounts before enabling additional forms of security, such as two-factor login, to ensure that the basic level of password security is reasonable.
- Preparing evidence for a security report or system review where you want to show real data about how users actually create their passwords and why a stronger password policy is justified.
The most important good practices in using Password Auditor
- Always ensure that the list of logins and passwords is processed in accordance with data protection regulations and internal security procedures, and only authorized team members have access to it.
- After the audit, properly delete the working files with credentials so that they do not circulate in e-mail boxes, instant messengers or shared drives longer than necessary.
- Do not use the tool to analyze other people's illegally obtained password databases, because the purpose of Password Auditor is to improve security in a controlled environment, not to support abuse.
FAQ - frequently asked questions about Password Auditor
Is password auditing in Password Auditor safe for my data
The tool analyzes the data that you paste into the form and uses it only in the current session. The purpose of the audit is to prepare a report on password strength and detected problems, so after completing the work, you should make sure that unnecessary files with credentials are secured or deleted in accordance with the procedures in your organization.
Can I use Password Auditor to check passwords in an online store
Yes, provided you have formal authority to manage these accounts and process their credentials, you can prepare an audit of store users' passwords, analyze the strength of passwords, check the number of very weak credentials and, based on this, plan to enforce password changes or introduce stricter requirements for account creation and password resets.
Does Password Auditor's password strength assessment replace password policy
Password strength assessment is a convenient heuristic that shows whether a given password meets basic length and complexity criteria, but it does not replace the organization's formal password policy or other security measures, so it is worth treating the audit results as a supplement to the rules that are already in force in the company's regulations and procedures.
How often should you conduct a password audit
In practice, it is a good idea to run Password Auditor after any major change in the login system, after updating the password policy, after introducing new types of accounts or roles, and periodically, for example once a quarter, to check whether users are actually complying with the new requirements or whether they are still trying to use simple and easy-to-guess passwords.
Is the tool suitable for small companies and freelancers
Yes, Password Auditor can be useful not only in large organizations, but also in small teams, freelancers, interactive agencies or administrators of several servers, because it allows you to quickly view the list of credentials, even if the number of accounts is small, and make sure that no one is using passwords like admin123 or qwerty.
Test your passwords with Password Auditor and remove the weakest security links
If you want to make sure that user accounts in your systems are not protected by passwords like admin admin, 123456 or name123, do a quick password audit in Password Auditor, see how many credentials are very weak and how many meet high security requirements, and plan changes before the first weakness is used against you organization.
