Strong Password Generator
A free password generator that runs entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API for unbiased, cryptographically secure randomness. Choose between random, pronounceable, PIN, and pattern modes, fine-tune the character classes, and see entropy and time-to-crack updated as you tweak the options.
How to use
Random is the strongest by entropy. Pronounceable is easier to dictate over the phone. PIN is for numeric-only locks. Pattern when a system demands a specific shape.
Slide the length to 12+ for personal accounts and 20+ for master / admin passwords. Toggle lowercase, uppercase, digits, symbols.
Aim for 80+ bits of entropy — anything below 60 bits is considered breakable by an offline attacker with modern hardware.
Single password — click Copy. Need many — set the count, click Generate, then Copy all or Download .txt.

FAQ
Is the randomness really cryptographically secure?
Yes. The generator uses window.crypto.getRandomValues with rejection sampling — the same source TLS uses for session keys. Math.random is never called.
How long should my password be?
12 characters with mixed classes is the modern minimum for personal accounts. 20+ characters for password-manager master keys, server roots, and recovery codes. Length adds more entropy than character class diversity.
What is entropy and why does it matter?
Entropy measures the number of equally-likely guesses an attacker must try on average. 80 bits ≈ 10²⁴ guesses — out of reach for any current adversary. 40 bits falls in under a minute.
Is pronounceable mode less secure?
It has lower entropy per character (~3.4 bits vs ~6.6 for full random), so add 4–6 characters of length to compensate. A 16-character pronounceable password is roughly as strong as a 12-character random one.
What is the pattern syntax?
A template where each character is a placeholder: c (lowercase), C (uppercase), d (digit), s (symbol), x (alphanumeric), * (any). Prefix with backslash to insert a literal character. Example: Cccdds matches like "Foo42!".
Can I trust a browser-based generator?
The code runs locally in your browser — you can inspect it via View Source. No password is sent over the network. For maximum trust, generate offline with the page already loaded.
