About Password Security

What Makes a Strong Password?

A strong password should:

Be at least 12-16 characters long (longer is better)
Include a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters
Include numbers and special symbols
Not contain easily guessable information (birthdays, names, etc.)
Be unique for each website or service

Password Security Tips

Use a Password Manager

Consider using a password manager to generate and store complex passwords securely. This allows you to have unique passwords for every service without having to remember them all.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication

Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) whenever possible to add an extra layer of security beyond just passwords.

Change Passwords Regularly

Change your passwords regularly, especially for important accounts like email and banking.

Check for Data Breaches

Regularly check if your accounts have been compromised in data breaches and change your passwords accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, this password generator uses cryptographically secure random number generation. All password generation is done directly in your browser, and no passwords are transmitted over the internet or stored on our servers.

For most online accounts, a password length of 16-20 characters provides excellent security. For critical accounts like banking or email, consider using even longer passwords (24+ characters). The longer and more complex a password is, the harder it is to crack.

The best practice is to use a password manager like Bitwarden, LastPass, 1Password, or KeePass. These tools can generate, store, and autofill complex passwords for you, so you only need to remember one master password. Alternatively, you can create a passphrase (a sequence of random words) which is both secure and easier to remember than random characters.

Websites that restrict password length or disallow special characters often have outdated security practices. These restrictions can sometimes be due to limitations in legacy systems or databases. If a site doesn't accept a strong password, consider using a unique password for that site and enabling two-factor authentication if available.
