What makes a strong password?
A strong password is at least 16 characters long and includes a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. The more variety and length, the harder it is to crack.
Why use a password generator?
Humans are bad at creating truly random passwords. We tend to use patterns, common words, and predictable substitutions. A password generator creates genuinely random strings that are much harder to guess or brute-force.
How does this tool work?
This generator uses your browser's built-in cryptographic random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues) to create truly random passwords. Nothing is sent to any server — the password is generated entirely on your device.
FAQ
- Is this password generator secure?
- Yes. Passwords are generated entirely in your browser using cryptographically secure random numbers. No data is ever sent to any server.
- What password length should I use?
- We recommend at least 16 characters for maximum security. For less critical accounts, 12 characters with mixed character types is a reasonable minimum.
- Should I include symbols in my password?
- Including symbols significantly increases password strength. However, some systems don't allow certain special characters. If you encounter issues, try generating without symbols.
- Does this tool save my passwords?
- No. The password exists only in your browser's memory while the page is open. We have no way to see, store, or recover generated passwords.
