📖 What is Password Generator?
This password generator uses the Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues) to generate cryptographically secure random passwords. Unlike Math.random()-based generators, these passwords are truly unpredictable and safe for use in security-sensitive applications.
💡 Example
Input
Length: 16, All character types
🛠️ Common Use Cases
- Generating strong passwords for new accounts
- Creating temporary passwords for user onboarding
- Generating API keys and secrets
- Creating database passwords for production systems
- Testing password strength validation logic
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How secure is this generator? ▾
It uses crypto.getRandomValues(), the same API used by password managers and security tools. This is cryptographically secure randomness, not pseudo-random.
What makes a strong password? ▾
Length matters most. A 16+ character password with mixed case, numbers and symbols is extremely strong. Length beats complexity — 'correct horse battery staple' is stronger than 'Tr0ub4dor&3'.
Is my generated password saved anywhere? ▾
No — passwords are generated and displayed only in your browser. Nothing is ever sent to a server. Close the tab and the password is gone.
How many characters should my password be? ▾
At minimum 12, ideally 16+. For high-security accounts (banking, email), use 20+ characters.
