Microsoft is already testing a system in Edge that allows us to order passwords based on their strength
Table of contents:
Microsoft continues to pamper one of its most successful releases. We are talking about the Edge browser with Chromium engine and if yesterday we saw how it was integrated with Math Solver and allowed us to solve problems and equations without leaving the browser, now it's time to talk about an improvement related to passwords
Microsoft has improved the functionality of the Password Manager" included in Edge and now this will warn users if the passwords we are using can be compromisedby not being too strong.A twist on what Chrome now offers, for example, a browser that has improved password management by allowing you to change those that have been compromised.
Stronger passwords
"This is a new functionality discovered by the user Leo Varela on Reddit and that is present in the section dedicated to managing the passwords that we use in Edge. Simply enter Settings and then Profiles to access the Passwords and see how a new column now appears with the name of He alth orHe alth"
It is present as of Edge Canary version 92.0.895.0. and allows access to information regarding the strength of our passwords (if they are more or less weak). Also, if we click on He alth>order the passwords based on their strength."
This new classification system allows that in addition to being able to order passwords as before, that is, in alphabetical order or according to the website, they can also be ordered based on the he alth they present and thus show only leaked, reused, or weak passwords
This new function is also complementary to the possibility of knowing if any of the passwords has been leaked. Again in Settings, Profiles and in Passwords , we can access a section that with the title Show alerts when passwords are found in an online leak, alerts us if any of the passwords used is in danger."
The new password viewer in Edge should appear from version 92.0.895.0 of Edge in the Canary Channel, although I just upgraded to version 92.0.898.0 and the column He alth> still doesn&39;t appear"
