To use the Diceware list you will need one or more dice. Dice come with many board games and are sold separately at toy, hobby, and magic stores, as well as online. Braille dice are also available. You can purchase a set of five casino-grade dice online from Amazon.com or Ebay.com for about $16, but they are overkill for this purpose. Do not use a computer program or electronic dice generator. 1. Download the complete Diceware list, the alternative Beale list or a list in the language of your choice, and save it on your computer. Print it out if you like. Then return to this page. 2. Decide how many words you want in your passphrase. A five word passphrase provides a level of security much higher than the simple passwords most people use. We recommend a minimum of six words for use with GPG, wireless security and file encryption programs. A seven, eight or nine word passphrase is recommended for high value uses such as whole disk encryption, BitCoin, and the like. For more information, see the Diceware FAQ. 3. Now roll the dice and write down the results on a slip of paper. Write the numbers in groups of five. Make as many of these five-digit groups as you want words in your passphrase. You can roll one die five times or roll five dice once, or any combination in between. If you do roll several dice at a time, read the dice from left to right. 4. Look up each five digit number in the Diceware list and find the word next to it. For example, 21124 means your next passphrase word would be "clip" (see the excerpt from the list, above). 5. When you are done, the words that you have found are your new passphrase. Memorize them and then either destroy the scrap of paper or keep it in a really safe place. That's all there is to it!     Example Suppose you want a six word passphrase, as we recommend for most users. You will need 6 times 5 or 30 dice rolls. Let's say they come out as: 1, 6, 6, 6, 5, 1, 5, 6, 5, 3, 5, 6, 3, 2, 2, 3, 5, 6, 1, 6, 6, 5, 2, 2, 4, 6, 4, 3, 2, and 6. Write down the results on a scrap of paper in groups of five rolls: 1 6 6 6 5 1 5 6 5 3 5 6 3 2 2 3 5 6 1 6 6 5 2 2 4 6 4 3 2 6 You then look up each group of five rolls in the Diceware word list by finding the number in the list and writing down the word next to the number: 1 6 6 6 5 cleft 1 5 6 5 3 cam 5 6 3 2 2 synod 3 5 6 1 6 lacy 6 5 2 2 4 yr 6 4 3 2 6 wok Your passphrase would then be: cleft cam synod lacy yr wok     Components: ● Program will have an interface that explains its operation and is clear for users ● Program reads in the word list from a file ● Program will ask the user for the number of words for a pass phrase and generate it   Suggested Possible Enhancements: · Regular password generation · Passphrase enhancements (special character inclusion, capitalization) · Passphrase strength measurement · Animation or visualization of generation · Use of colour · Add more languages

Example

Suppose you want a six word passphrase, as we recommend for most users. You will need 6 times 5 or 30 dice rolls. Let's say they come out as:

1, 6, 6, 6, 5, 1, 5, 6, 5, 3, 5, 6, 3, 2, 2, 3, 5, 6,

1, 6, 6, 5, 2, 2, 4, 6, 4, 3, 2, and 6.

Write down the results on a scrap of paper in groups of five rolls:

1 6 6 6 5

1 5 6 5 3

5 6 3 2 2

3 5 6 1 6

6 5 2 2 4

6 4 3 2 6

You then look up each group of five rolls in the Diceware word list by finding the number in the list and writing down the word next to the number:

1 6 6 6 5 cleft

1 5 6 5 3 cam

5 6 3 2 2 synod

3 5 6 1 6 lacy

6 5 2 2 4 yr

6 4 3 2 6 wok

Your passphrase would then be:

cleft cam synod lacy yr wok

Components:

● Program will have an interface that explains its operation and is clear for users

● Program reads in the word list from a file

● Program will ask the user for the number of words for a pass phrase and generate it

Suggested Possible Enhancements:

· Regular password generation

· Passphrase enhancements (special character inclusion, capitalization)

· Passphrase strength measurement

· Animation or visualization of generation

· Use of colour
