Ultimate Guide to Password Security
Protecting your digital identity starts with strong credentials. Here's everything you need to know about generating secure passwords.
An 8-character password can be cracked in seconds. A 16-character password would take trillions of years.
Why use a random password generator?
Humans are terrible at being random. We tend to use patterns like birthdays, pet names, or simple sequences (like '123456') which hackers can crack in milliseconds using dictionary attacks. A cryptographic random password generator creates unpredictable strings that are mathematically resistant to brute-force attempts.
What makes a password 'Strong'?
Length is the most critical factor. A 12-character password takes exponentially longer to crack than an 8-character one. Complexity (mixing Uppercase, Lowercase, Numbers, Symbols) increases entropy. Ideally, aim for 16+ characters with a mix of all character types.
Is it safe to generate passwords in a browser?
Yes, absolutely. This tool runs entirely on your device (Client-Side). We use your browser's built-in `window.crypto` API to generate secure random numbers. Your password never leaves your browser and is never sent to any server.
Top 10 Most Common Passwords (Avoid These!)
According to recent data breaches, these are the most dangerous passwords: 1. 123456, 2. password, 3. 123456789, 4. guest, 5. 12345, 6. 12345678, 7. 111111, 8. 123123, 9. qwerty, 10. adobe123. If you use any of these, change them immediately!
How often should I change my password?
Modern guidelines (NIST) suggest you don't need to change passwords arbitrarily (e.g., every 90 days) unless there is a known breach. Instead, focus on using unique, long, and complex passwords for every single account. Use a Password Manager to remember them.
