What is Password Entropy Calculator
The Password Entropy Calculator computes the Shannon entropy and total bit entropy of a password. It analyzes the character set used (lowercase 26, uppercase 26, digits 10, symbols 33, Unicode 100k+), calculates the effective pool size, and determines how many bits of entropy the password provides against brute-force attacks.
