Abstract

This study introduces an advanced framework that not only evaluates password strength but also tackles a critical issue: personal information embedded in passwords. By incorporating NER, the framework surpasses existing tools by detecting personal data within passwords, offering a more detailed assessment. These insights contribute to better password creation and evaluation strategies, reinforcing the importance of sophisticated mechanisms in fortifying digital security practices.
