Help with your password
To help make sure your password is as secure or 'strong' as possible, we've introduced a password strength checking tool.
Just enter your password into the field below and adjust it if necessary until you get a 'strong' rating.
If you would like to see your password as you type just click the show button.
This tool doesn't collect, store or send password information from your computer.
Please also note that this tool is only intended to help you guage the strength of your password - it doesn't guarantee the security of the password itself.
