๐Ÿ”‘ Strong Password Generator

A strong password is the first line of defence against unauthorised account access. This generator creates cryptographically random passwords using your browser's built-in crypto.getRandomValues() API โ€” no passwords are sent to any server or stored anywhere.

๐ŸŽฒ True Randomness

Uses the browser's CSPRNG (Cryptographically Secure Pseudo-Random Number Generator) โ€” the same source used by TLS and cryptographic libraries.

๐Ÿ“ Length Matters

Every extra character multiplies the keyspace. A 16-character random password with uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols has over 10ยฒโน possible values.

๐Ÿ”ค Character Sets

Including all four character types (uppercase, lowercase, digits, symbols) maximises entropy per character. Removing symbols slightly reduces entropy but improves compatibility with some services.

๐Ÿ—„๏ธ Use a Manager

Store generated passwords in a password manager (Bitwarden, 1Password, KeePass) so you never need to remember them โ€” only your master password matters.

โ“ Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to generate passwords in a browser?

Yes, when generation uses crypto.getRandomValues() (as this tool does) and no data leaves your device. Avoid any tool that claims to generate passwords server-side.

What makes a password "strong"?

Length and randomness โ€” not complexity tricks like substituting letters with numbers (p@ssw0rd). A 20-character random string is far stronger than any pattern-based password.
