Extension summary
With Iconic Passwords, simply memorize a few sequential images and generate a unique password for that combination at any time using our mobile or web app. Use the 'copy' button to save the password to your clipboard and you never even have to glance at it! Your passwords will be easier to remember, painless to type, and harder to hack! Just install the browser extension to have access to the website at any time by clicking the button.
Simply choose a number of our 3000+ icons (more coming) and it will copy a robust and unique password to your clipboard specific to the sequence chosen. As there about 72 consistently accepted characters for modern passwords, you can imagine any possible combination as a number expressed in base72. Most passwords require a minimum of six characters, so the number of possibilities can be expressed as 72^6, about 1.4e11. Iconic Passwords creates its own base in excess of 3000 which allows for comparable robustness, or 'entropy', with choosing as few as 3 icons, and substantially more if you choose 4 or 5 and/or encode this string of images with a PIN #.
Simply memorize a few sequential images and you can use Iconic Passwords to copy your generated passcode to your clipboard at any time. Best of all, Iconic Passwords never asks for or stores any of your data, and while it uses a base conversion algorithm to generate your password, there is nothing about the algorithm itself that could ever suggest what your password might be. In other words, each passcode is unattainable without your sequence of images.
Iconic Passwords was created and developed by Christopher Cinq-Mars Jarvis. Thanks given to Randall Munroe, author of the brilliant webcomic xkcd, for inspiring the idea!
