Strong Password Generator
Create ultra-secure passwords instantly. Customize length and character types for maximum protection.
Why Password Strength Matters
In an era of frequent data breaches, your password is often the only thing standing between hackers and your personal information. Weak passwords like "password123" or "qwerty" can be cracked in milliseconds.
The Power of Entropy
Entropy is a measure of randomness or unpredictability. The higher the entropy, the harder it is for a computer to guess your password.
- Length is King: Adding just one character exponentially increases the difficulty of cracking. A 12-character password is significantly stronger than an 8-character one.
- Variety Helps: Mixing numbers, symbols, and cases multiplies the possible combinations for each position in the password.

Password Security Tips
Use Long Passwords
Longer passwords (16+ characters) are exponentially harder to crack. Our generator supports up to 64 characters.
Mix Character Types
Combine uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols for maximum security. Each type adds complexity.
Change Regularly
Update your passwords every 3-6 months, especially for sensitive accounts like banking and email.
Avoid Personal Info
Never use birthdays, names, or dictionary words. Random passwords are much more secure.
Use Password Manager
Store your passwords in a reputable password manager. Never reuse passwords across sites.
Enable 2FA
Always enable two-factor authentication when available for an extra layer of security.
Frequently Asked Questions
How secure are these generated passwords?▼
Very secure! Our password generator uses cryptographically secure random number generation (CSRNG) to create truly random passwords. A 16-character password with mixed characters would take billions of years to crack with current technology.
What makes a strong password?▼
A strong password is at least 12-16 characters long and includes a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. It should be completely random and not based on dictionary words or personal information.
Are these passwords stored anywhere?▼
No! All password generation happens locally in your browser. We never see, store, or transmit your passwords. Your security and privacy are completely protected.
Should I use symbols in my password?▼
Yes! Including symbols significantly increases password strength. However, some websites don't allow certain symbols, so you can disable them if needed.
How often should I change my passwords?▼
Security experts recommend changing passwords every 3-6 months for important accounts. However, using a strong, unique password for each account is more important than frequent changes.
Can I use this for all my accounts?▼
Absolutely! Generate a unique password for each account. Never reuse passwords across different websites or services, as this creates a security vulnerability.
