🔐 Random Password Generator

A password generator is a tool that automatically creates strong, random passwords based on your specified criteria. Using a password generator is recommended because humans tend to create predictable passwords based on familiar patterns. A random password generator eliminates this bias by producing truly unpredictable character combinations that are much harder for attackers to guess or crack.

Yes, this password generator is completely safe. All passwords are generated directly in your web browser using the cryptographically secure Web Crypto API. No generated password is ever transmitted over the internet or stored on any server. The password generator runs entirely on your device, ensuring maximum privacy and security for every password created.

Security experts recommend passwords of at least 12-16 characters for standard accounts and 20+ characters for high-security accounts. Our password generator supports lengths up to 128 characters. The longer the password generated, the exponentially harder it is to crack through brute-force attacks. A 16-character password with mixed character types would take millions of years to crack with current technology.

Password entropy, measured in bits, quantifies the randomness and unpredictability of a password. It's calculated using the formula E = L × log₂(R), where L is the password length and R is the size of the character pool. Our password generator displays the entropy of each generated password in real time. Higher entropy means a stronger, more secure password. A password with 128+ bits of entropy is considered virtually uncrackable.

Ambiguous characters are those that can be easily confused with each other in certain fonts, such as lowercase 'l' and uppercase 'I', the number '1', the letter 'O' and the number '0'. Our password generator includes an option to exclude these ambiguous characters, which is useful when you need to manually type or read the generated password. This reduces the chance of login failures due to character confusion.

No, you should never reuse the same password across different accounts. If one account is compromised, all accounts sharing that password become vulnerable. Use our password generator to create a unique, strong password for each account. Consider using a password manager to securely store all your generated passwords so you don't have to memorize them.
