What are safety points?

The safety points reflect the complexity of a password. If numbers, small and capital letters and special characters are used in a password it is quite complex and therefore receives the required safety points more quickly. The safety points are calculated for every password, at this also redundancies and direct repeats are considered. So it can be made sure that the passwords are saved complex enough.
