Frequently Asked Questions
Our tool uses your browser's built-in cryptographic functions to generate random passwords based on your selected criteria. The generation happens completely in your browser - no passwords are ever sent to our servers.
Strong passwords are long (12+ characters), use a mix of character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols), and don't contain dictionary words or predictable patterns. Our generator creates passwords that meet all these criteria.
If you must write down passwords, keep them in a secure location (not on your computer or phone). Better yet, use a reputable password manager to store and organize your passwords securely.
Current security best practices recommend changing passwords only when there's reason to believe they may be compromised (like after a data breach). Focus instead on using unique, strong passwords for each account.
