Your Field Tools
Practical tools that run entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere.
Checked on your device only. We never visit the link — and you shouldn’t either if it looks off.
*Estimate assumes an attacker with a stolen password database guessing ten billion times per second. Online login pages are slower — but leaked databases aren’t.
Random everyday words are easy to remember and hard to crack. Best of all: let a password manager make and remember them for you.
Runs locally. Your password never leaves this page.
Your Personal Lockdown
Knowing the scams is half. The other half is making yourself a hard target. Check things off as you go — your progress saves on this device.
Start with the “Basic” items. They stop most attacks.
