What is the Password Generator?

Generate strong, random passwords with a cryptographically secure generator. A cryptographically secure generator creates long, random passwords that resist guessing and brute-force attacks far better than ones people invent.

How to use the Password Generator

  1. Enter your length, your how many.
  2. Tick the options you need: uppercase a–z, lowercase a–z, numbers 0–9, symbols !@#$…, avoid look-alikes (il1o0o).
  3. Press the Generate button — press it again for a fresh result.
  4. Read the output: passwords, entropy, strength, brute-force time (10b guesses/s).
  5. Use the 📊 chart to see the result visually, then copy or share it.

Formula and method

Entropy = length × log₂(pool size); characters drawn with crypto.getRandomValues

Where the Password Generator helps in real life

You are setting up online banking and want a password that is not used anywhere else. Generating a 20-character password and saving it in a password manager gives strong protection.

An IT administrator creates temporary passwords for new employees that must be changed at first login.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Reusing the same password on more than one site.
  • Choosing a short password because it is easier to type.
  • Keeping passwords in a plain text file or spreadsheet.
  • Building passwords from names, birthdays or keyboard patterns.

💡 Practical tip: A password manager lets you use long, unique passwords without remembering them.

Tips for better results

  • Aim for at least 16 characters for important accounts.
  • Save every generated password straight into a password manager.
  • Turn on two-factor authentication wherever it is offered.
