Quick Answer
Set your desired length (16+ characters recommended), check all character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols), and click Generate. Passwords are created using your browser's cryptographic random number generator — no data is sent to any server.
How to create a strong password
A strong password is long, random, and unique to each account. Length is the most important factor. A 20-character random string is exponentially harder to crack than an 8-character one, even if the shorter one uses special characters.
Why you need a different password for every account
When any website is breached, attackers use stolen passwords to try logging into other services (credential stuffing). If you reuse passwords, one breach compromises multiple accounts. Unique passwords eliminate this risk entirely.
Using a password manager
The only practical way to use unique, long, random passwords everywhere is with a password manager. It stores all your passwords encrypted behind one master password and auto-fills them. Generate a password here, then save it in your manager.
Frequently asked questions
What makes a password strong?
A strong password is long (12+ characters), random, and uses a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Length matters more than complexity. A 20-character random string is stronger than an 8-character one with special characters.
How long should a password be?
Security experts recommend at least 12 characters for most accounts, and 16+ for sensitive accounts like email and banking. Each additional character exponentially increases the number of combinations a brute-force attack must try.
Is it safe to use an online password generator?
This generator creates passwords entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No password is sent to any server or stored anywhere. You can verify this by disconnecting from the internet and generating a password. It still works.
Should I use a password manager?
Yes. A password manager lets you use a unique, strong, randomly generated password for every site without needing to remember them all. Leading options include 1Password, Bitwarden, and Dashlane.
