Why is this tool safe?

No Data Sent to Server

This password generator runs entirely within your browser using JavaScript. When you click "Generate", the password is created locally on your device. It is never uploaded or transmitted over the internet to our servers.

It works even if you are offline, making it a secure choice for generating sensitive credentials.

Tips for Secure Passwords

📏

Length: 12+ Characters

With modern computing power, short passwords (8 chars) can be cracked quickly. We recommend setting the length to at least 12 characters, ideally 14 or more.

🔣

Mix 3+ Character Types

Combining "Uppercase", "Lowercase", "Numbers", and "Symbols" exponentially increases the number of possible combinations, making brute-force attacks much harder.

⚠️

Never Reuse Passwords

Even the strongest password is useless if it leaks from one site. If you reuse it, all your accounts are at risk. Always use unique passwords for every service.

FAQ

Q. Can the administrator see my password?

A. No. The generation process happens solely on your device (Client-side). It is technically impossible for us to see or store your passwords.


Q. What are "Ambiguous Characters"?

A. These are characters that look very similar, such as the uppercase "I" (Eye), lowercase "l" (El), and number "1". Or the uppercase "O" and number "0". Excluding them helps prevent typing errors.


Q. Should I change passwords periodically?

A. Modern standards (like NIST guidelines) suggest not changing passwords arbitrarily unless there is a sign of a breach. Forcing frequent changes often leads to people choosing weaker, predictable passwords.

How to Create a Strong Password

Generate a random password in seconds and understand what makes it hard to crack.

Generate a password in 3 steps

  1. Drag the slider to choose a length from 4 to 64 characters. We recommend 16 or more.
  2. Pick the character types: uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Turn on Exclude Ambiguous if you will ever type the password by hand.
  3. Click Generate Password, then Copy to Clipboard and save it in your password manager.

Each character is picked with your browser's cryptographically secure random number generator (the Web Crypto API), so the result is unpredictable and is never sent over the internet.

How length and character types affect strength

Password strength is often measured in bits of entropy: the number of guesses an attacker would need to try every possibility. Each extra character multiplies that number, which is why length matters more than anything else.

LengthLowercase + numbers (36 characters)All four types (88 characters)
8 charactersAbout 41 bits – weakAbout 52 bits – weak
12 charactersAbout 62 bits – fairAbout 78 bits – strong
16 charactersAbout 83 bits – strongAbout 103 bits – very strong
20 charactersAbout 103 bits – very strongAbout 129 bits – extremely strong

A random 16-character password with all four character types is far beyond what brute-force attacks can realistically guess. Human-made passwords like Summer2025! are much weaker than their length suggests, because attackers try common words, names, dates, and patterns first.

Recommended settings by use

  • Online accounts saved in a password manager: 16–20 characters, all character types.
  • Email, banking, and your password manager's master password: 20+ characters, or a long passphrase you can remember, plus two-factor authentication.
  • Wi-Fi passwords: 16–20 characters with ambiguous characters excluded so guests can type them. You can then share it with a Wi-Fi QR code.
  • Sites with strict rules: some sites reject certain symbols or limit length. Turn off symbols and increase the length to keep the password strong.

Good password habits

  • Use a different password for every account so one leak cannot unlock the others.
  • Store passwords in a reputable password manager instead of a notes app or spreadsheet.
  • Turn on two-factor authentication (an authenticator app or passkey) wherever it is offered.
  • Change a password right away if a service reports a breach or you notice suspicious sign-ins.

More Password Questions

Is this password generator really random?

Yes. It uses crypto.getRandomValues(), the cryptographically secure random number generator built into modern browsers, and picks every character without bias.

How long should a password be?

Use at least 12 characters, and 16 or more for important accounts. Current NIST guidance favors long passwords over complex rules or frequent forced changes.

Are generated passwords saved anywhere?

No. The password exists only on your screen until you copy it. Nothing is stored or sent to a server, and the page keeps working even if you go offline after it loads.

Which symbols can the generator use?

When symbols are on, it can use ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + - = [ ] { } | ; : , . < > ?. If a website rejects a symbol, generate a new password or turn symbols off and make it longer.

Is a passphrase better than a random password?

A passphrase of five or more random words is easier to remember and can be very strong, which makes it a good choice for a master password. For everything stored in a password manager, a long random password is the simplest option.

What does the strength meter check?

It looks at the length and how many character types the password contains. Treat it as a quick guide; a longer random password is always the safer choice.
