Is it safe to generate passwords online?

This generator runs entirely in your browser. Passwords are never sent over the internet or saved by us.

How long should a password be?

At least 12 characters; 16 or more is better for important accounts.

What does “avoid look-alikes” do?

It removes characters that are easy to confuse, such as I, l, 1, O and 0, which helps when typing a password by hand.

Symbols increase strength, but length matters more. If a website does not allow symbols, use a longer password.

How to use the Password Generator

Choose the length – 16 characters or more is recommended.
Select the character types to include.
Tick Avoid look-alikes if you will type the password by hand (it removes I, l, 1, O, 0).
Click Copy and save the password in a password manager.

Formula

Entropy (bits) = length × log₂(pool size)

The pool size is the number of different characters allowed. Each extra bit doubles the number of guesses an attacker needs.
Below 40 bits is weak, 60+ is strong and 90+ is very strong.

Worked example: Why length matters

An 8-character password using all four character types has about 52 bits of entropy. At 16 characters it reaches about 103 bits – not twice as strong, but trillions of times stronger.

Password safety tips

A strong password only helps if you use it well:

Use a different password for every account, especially email and banking.
Store passwords in a reputable password manager instead of a notebook or chat.
Turn on two-factor authentication (OTP or authenticator app) wherever possible.
Never share passwords or OTPs on calls, SMS or WhatsApp – banks never ask for them.
