Password Generator
Free password generator. Create secure random passwords with uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. Includes a strength meter, length slider, and one-click copy to clipboard.
Why Do You Need Strong Passwords?
Weak passwords are the leading cause of hacks and identity theft. A strong password should be long, random, and unique for every account. This generator creates cryptographically secure passwords using your browser's Web Crypto API.
What Makes a Password Strong?
A strong password combines length (at least 12 characters), variety (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols), and randomness (not based on dictionary words or personal information). The longer and more varied, the harder it is to crack.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many characters should a secure password have?
A minimum of 12 characters is recommended, but 16 or more is ideal. Each additional character exponentially increases the difficulty of cracking it by brute force.
Is it safe to generate passwords online?
Yes, when they are generated in your browser like with this tool. The password is created locally on your device using crypto.getRandomValues() and is never sent to any server.
Should I use a password manager?
Yes, it is highly recommended. A password manager lets you use unique, secure passwords for every account without needing to memorize them all.
