Generate a random password and keep it private

Understand the settings

The generator uses the browser’s cryptographic random-number source. It rejects out-of-range random values when selecting characters, avoiding modulo bias. It also retries complete strings until every selected character group appears at least once; it does not build passwords from names, dates or dictionary fragments.

Choose a length accepted by the destination. The default is 20 characters. Select the character groups the destination allows. Longer random passwords generally offer a larger search space, but a generated password can still be exposed by phishing, malware, password reuse or an insecure service.

A unique password per account prevents one site’s compromise from directly exposing another account using the same password. Use a password manager to create/store credentials and enable multi-factor authentication where possible. This page can generate a value, but it cannot verify the security of the service where you use it.

Step by step

1. Choose a length from 8 to 128 and at least one character group.
2. Generate one password or up to ten at once.
3. Copy the required password into your password manager and the destination form.
4. Clear the page after use. Avoid downloading a plain-text password file on a shared computer.

Match a site’s restrictions

If a service accepts only letters and digits, turn off Symbols and keep uppercase, lowercase and digits selected. Generate a fresh password rather than editing an old password you already used elsewhere.

Limits and what to check

• Generated values are not transmitted or automatically stored by this tool.
• Clipboard managers, extensions and downloaded files are outside the tool’s control. Clear only removes the current page output.
• No password checking against breach databases, strength guarantee or account storage is provided.
• The tool requires a browser with Web Crypto randomness.
