🔐 Password Generator
Creating a new account and want a password that is harder to guess than a reused phrase? Choose the length and character groups you want, then generate a random password in your browser on your device.
What Is a Password Generator?
A password generator creates random combinations of characters that can be used when creating passwords for online accounts, applications and other services.
Randomly generated passwords can help avoid predictable patterns such as names, dates and commonly used words.
How to Generate a Password
- Choose a password length between 6 and 64 characters.
- Select the character types you want to use.
- Click Generate Password.
- Review the generated password and its estimated strength.
- Click Copy to copy the password when needed.
Password Generation Tips
- Longer passwords are generally harder to guess than short passwords.
- Use a mixture of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers and symbols when the service allows them.
- Avoid reusing the same password across multiple important accounts.
- Consider using a reputable password manager to store unique passwords.
- Enable multi-factor authentication when available.
How Does ToolStrive Generate Passwords?
When supported by your browser, this tool uses the Web Crypto API to obtain cryptographically strong random values.
The generator also makes sure that the generated password contains at least one character from every character group you selected, provided the selected password length can accommodate those groups.
Using Generated Passwords Safely
A generated password is most useful when it is unique to one account. Reusing the same password across services means a compromise at one service can affect other accounts as well. For important accounts, consider storing unique passwords in a reputable password manager and enabling multi-factor authentication when the service supports it.
Length and character variety can increase the number of possible combinations, but no password generator can guarantee that an account will never be compromised. Account security also depends on how the password is stored, transmitted, and protected by the service.
