Password scrambler

Small utility to generate complicated passwords
Benefits:

• You get more secure password- long, not from dictionary, etc i.e 'txork9Zfa8yXc_lMbb1LCHPZIH7wE1'
• Yet, you don't have to remeber it - you must remember only your easy password and document that you used as a generation base
• It is not saving your complicated password anywhere, so nobody can steal it and decrypt - it generates it by hasing function and you just need to copy it and login where you want
• Open source, written in python - nothing is hidden under the hood, everyone can review it before using and make custom changes in code

How it works:

./passcrambler.py --help
usage: passcrambler.py [-h] --file FILE --login LOGIN [--special SPECIAL]
[--length LENGTH]
Password scrambler
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--file FILE File used to initialize generation
--login LOGIN Login for which you want to use the password
--special SPECIAL Whitelist of special characters, i.e: '_&#'
--length LENGTH Length of the password, default=30

example:

./passcrambler.py --file MyPhoto.jpg --login hasherezade@hasherezade.net
Password: _password123_

Typical sc

enario:

• I need to generate a new password i.e. for my e-mail
• I have to prepare 2 things : an easy password, that I will remember and some document, that I have to keep safe without changes
• I deploy password scrambler giving as an input my login and a document
• I am prompted for the easy password, so I type it
• I copy generated password and change it in my e-mail service
• Wherever I need to re-login I just deploy scrambler with same parameters, and it will regenerate the same hash
