Password Generator
Enter a password. Must contain:
- At least 8 characters - Requirement not met
- At least 1 number - Requirement not met
- At least 1 lowercase letter - Requirement not met
- At least 1 uppercase letter - Requirement not met
Strong passwords help protect your accounts from unauthorized access. A good password should:
- Be at least 12 characters long
- Include a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols
- Avoid common words, phrases, or personal information
- Use a unique password for each account

Length matters most
The longer a password is, the harder it is to crack. A 16-character password is exponentially more secure than an 8-character one, even with complex characters.
Entropy
Password entropy measures unpredictability. Higher entropy means more security. A password with 80+ bits of entropy is considered very strong against brute force attacks.
Character variety
Using a mix of character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols) increases entropy and makes passwords harder to guess or crack.
Password reuse
Using the same password across multiple sites means one breach can compromise many of your accounts. Use unique passwords for each service.
Predictable patterns
Replacing letters with numbers (e.g., "p@ssw0rd") is a well-known pattern that attackers check. Avoid common substitutions and patterns.
Tip: Use a password manager to store and generate unique complex passwords for all your accounts.
