Password Generator
Generate a strong password that's hard to guess or brute-force.
What makes a password secure?
Password strength comes down to two things: length and randomness. Each additional character multiplies the number of possible combinations, making brute-force attacks exponentially harder. True randomness (rather than real words, names, or birthdays) also protects against "dictionary attacks," where hackers try common words and patterns first. This tool generates passwords locally in your browser — nothing is sent to a server or logged.
How long should a password be?
For most accounts, aim for at least 12-16 characters mixing uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. For high-value accounts — email, banking, or your password manager's master password — use 16+ characters. Pairing this with a password manager means you only have to remember one strong password instead of dozens.
Frequently asked questions
Why shouldn't I reuse the same password across sites?
If one site's database is breached, attackers use the leaked username/password pairs to try logging into other sites — a technique called "credential stuffing." Reusing passwords means a single breach can compromise every account tied to that password. A password manager makes it practical to use a unique, strong password everywhere.
Do I really need special symbols in my password?
Not strictly, but they help. Password strength comes from the total number of possible combinations — more character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols) and greater length both increase that number, making brute-force attacks slower. If a site doesn't allow symbols, using a longer password can achieve a similar security level.
Does this tool store or log the passwords it generates?
No. Passwords are generated entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API and are never transmitted to any server or saved anywhere. Once you close or refresh the page, there's no record of what was generated — be sure to copy and store it securely yourself.

Why use a randomly generated password?
A 16+ character password with mixed case, numbers, and symbols is far harder to brute-force or guess than one you make up yourself. Use a different password for every site, and consider a password manager to keep track of them.

Length and randomness matter more than clever substitutions. Use a unique password per important account and store it in a reputable password manager. Turn on two-factor authentication for email and banking.
Passwords are created locally in your browser and are not sent to or saved by this site. Copy the result into your manager immediately; avoid keeping it in screenshots or chat apps.
