Password Hasher Firefox Extension

Well seen as though we were talking about breaking passwords, here’s a tool for Firefox to help you manage your more secure passwords.

Better security without bursting your brain

Password Hasher is a Firefox security extension for generating site-specific strong passwords from one (or a few) master key(s).

What good security practice demands:

Strong passwords that are hard to guess.
Different passwords at each site.
Periodically changing existing passwords.

Why you probably aren’t practicing good security:

Strong passwords are difficult to remember.
Juggling a multitude of passwords is a pain.
Updating passwords compounds the memorization problem.

How Password Hasher helps:

  • Strong passwords are automatically generated.
  • The same master key produces different passwords at many sites.
  • You can quickly upgrade passwords by “bumping” the site tag.
  • You can upgrade the master key without updating all sites at once.
  • It supports different length passwords.
  • It supports special requirements, such as digit and punctuation characters.
  • All data is saved to the browser’s secure password database.
