What Makes a Strong Password?
A strong password has: Length: 16+ characters. Complexity: Mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Randomness: No dictionary words or patterns. Uniqueness: Different for every account.
Password Security Tips
Use a password manager (1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass) to store complex passwords. Enable two-factor authentication on all important accounts. Never reuse passwords across sites — a breach on one site exposes all accounts with the same password.
Privacy Note
All passwords are generated locally in your browser using JavaScript's Math.random(). No passwords are transmitted to any server. For cryptographically secure passwords, use your operating system's built-in password generator.
Is this password generator truly random?
This tool uses JavaScript's Math.random() which is pseudorandom — suitable for most uses but not cryptographically secure for high-stakes applications. For maximum security, use hardware-based generators.
How long should my password be?
At minimum 12 characters for standard accounts, 16+ for email and banking, 20+ for master passwords and encryption keys.
