Test your password strength!

Microsoft has an online Password Checker, to evaluate password strength based on a number of factors including length and complexity. No information is submitted over the Internet when using this tool, so it is safe to use. 

Additionally, suggestions are provided to improve password strength, help you create passwords that you can remember more easily, and offer tips on keeping your password safe.
