WordPass Pro is now available as a beta release.  This is the pro version of WordPass which is freely available on wordpress.org.

This beta release is available exclusively to RocketGeek.com subscribers.  The plugin will eventually be available as a separate product, but in its initial release it will only be available with the site subscription.

Basic features

• Random selection from the word list of a single word.
• Word list allows unlimited words.
• Makes words all lowercase, all uppercase, first letter uppercase, or random selection (for best security, use random selection).
• A random number between 1 and 3 digits is added to every password. This number may be split and added as multiple numbers (for example, if the random word selected is sloop, and a 3 digit number is selected, it might be served as 9sloop40.)
• At random, a single special character may be added.

Additional features in the Pro version

• All of the free version features PLUS:
• Number of words used can be between 1-4 or a random number chosen at random from the word list.
• Default word list includes well over a hundred words to get you started.
• Words can be “leetified” (“leetspeak” is a process of changing certain letters to other symbols, letters, or numbers; for example, “street” might be “$tr33t” in leet). Leet can be turned on or off or be randomly applied.
• Basic leet dictionary included can be filtered to allow custom leet character mapping.
• Number of numbers can be 0-3 digits or random.
• Number of special characters can be 0-3 or random.
• Special characters used can be filtered to allow additional (or removal of) characters.

Upcoming features

• Setting to enforce strong passwords – every password generated will be checked against the password strength meter and only strong passwords will be allowed to be generated.
• Settings to create easier passwords for humans that are harder for computers to crack.  This is the premise behind the zxcvbn password algorithm.
