Learn how to create strong, secure passwords
What is a Password Generator?
A password generator creates random, secure passwords that are difficult to guess or crack. Strong passwords typically include a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters with sufficient length.
How to Use This Tool
- Set your desired password length (12+ characters recommended)
- Select character types to include (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols)
- Click generate to create a new password
- Copy the password and store it in a password manager
Security Tips
- Use at least 16 characters for sensitive accounts
- Never reuse passwords across different services
- Use a password manager to store your passwords securely
Security Note
All passwords are generated locally in your browser. No data is sent to any server, ensuring your passwords remain completely private and secure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this password generator secure?
Yes, it is completely secure. All passwords are generated locally in your browser using the Web Crypto API. No data is sent to any server, and generated passwords are not stored anywhere. We use a cryptographically secure random number generator to create unpredictable passwords.
What is the recommended length for a secure password?
We recommend at least 12 characters, with 16 or more being even more secure. For financial accounts or critical services, consider using 20+ characters. Longer passwords exponentially increase resistance to brute force attacks.
Do I need to include special characters?
Including special characters increases password complexity and enhances security. However, some older systems may not support special characters. When possible, combining uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters provides the strongest protection.
How should I manage generated passwords?
Store generated passwords in a trusted password manager (e.g., 1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass). Avoid writing them on paper or saving them in unencrypted files. Use a unique password for each service to prevent credential stuffing attacks.
How often should I change my passwords?
While regular password changes were once recommended, security experts now suggest using strong, unique passwords and only changing them when a breach is suspected. Change your password immediately if a data breach occurs or if you notice suspicious activity on your account.
