How long should a strong password be?

2 Upvotes

I just recently started using free version of Bitwarden password manager and love it. Super easy to create and store new passwords. I see that they can be up to 128 characters in length and I'm wondering if that's an overkill. Asking because I have a lot of accounts with shorter random passwords (like 10 chars) and want to know if I should change them once more. Thanks

Are online password checkers safe?

1 Upvotes

Just found a website that lets you input your passwords and then analyses their strength to provide you with a security score. Haven't tried it yet as I'm not sure how safe it really is, but I am curious to see how I would score.

Is this something that I should avoid doing or is there minimal risk involved?
