Generate a strong password with this tool, designed to prioritize your privacy and security. The password is created right on your computer and never transmitted elsewhere. Here’s what makes this password generator a reliable choice:
- Uses a strong randomness algorithm to create unpredictable character combinations.
- Allows you to choose the number of letters, symbols, and numbers, with a password length ranging from 16 to 64 characters for added strength.
- Ensures at least one lower case and one upper case letter is used if you select at least two letters.
- Enhances readability by letting you exclude confusing characters like upper case “oh” (O), zero (0), lower case “el” (l), and upper case “eye” (I).
- Uses symbols carefully selected to avoid those commonly disallowed by websites.
Feel free to adjust the initial default settings and create a password that works best for you. And hey, if you still don’t trust that it’s staying local, feel free to tweak the password afterward—it’s all yours!
Check out this cool table below from Hive Systems ↗ (non-affiliated). If you used the default settings to generate your password, it would take a hacker 3 quadrillion years to brute force, or crack, your password! Contrast that to a password consisting of only 8 lowercase letters, which would take only 22 hours to crack.
