What is Diceware?

Diceware is a method of generating passphrases using dice rolls to select words from a pre-defined list. The list contains 7,776 words, each assigned a unique 5-digit code number containing the digits 1 to 6. To generate a passphrase using Diceware, you roll five dice for each word you want in your passphrase and then consult the words table to find the matching word.

The resulting passphrase uses real words or common abbreviations so it is easier to remember than a random collection of characters. At the same time, the random selection of words makes the generated passphrase much more secure as it avoids the human tendency to pick words with personal meaning.
