Understanding Password Strength
What Makes a Password Strong?
A strong password is one that is difficult for both humans and computers to guess. The strength of a password depends on several factors:
- Length: Longer passwords are exponentially more secure
- Complexity: Mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols
- Randomness: Avoid patterns, sequences, or personal information
- Uniqueness: Use different passwords for each account
Password Cracking Methods
Hackers use various methods to crack passwords:
- Dictionary Attacks: Trying common words and phrases
- Brute Force: Trying every possible combination
- Social Engineering: Using personal information
- Rainbow Tables: Pre-computed password hashes

Is this password generator secure?
Yes, our password generator is completely secure. All password generation happens in your browser using cryptographically secure random number generation. We never see, store, or transmit your passwords.
How long should my password be?
For maximum security, we recommend using passwords that are at least 12 characters long. Longer passwords are exponentially more secure against brute force attacks.
Should I use special characters?
Yes, including special characters (!@#$%^&*) in your passwords significantly increases their strength and makes them harder to crack.
Can I use the same password for multiple accounts?
No, you should never use the same password for multiple accounts. If one account is compromised, all your other accounts would be at risk. Use unique passwords for each account.
How often should I change my passwords?
It's recommended to change your passwords every 3-6 months, or immediately if you suspect a security breach. Also change passwords if you've used them on compromised websites.
