Password Security Guide
1 Password Best Practices
- Use unique passwords for every account
- Make passwords at least 12 characters long
- Include a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols
- Avoid personal information like names, birthdays, or addresses
- Don't use common words or predictable patterns
- Update passwords regularly, especially for sensitive accounts
2 Password Strength Levels
3 Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Enable 2FA wherever possible for an extra layer of security. Even if your password is compromised, 2FA helps protect your account.
- Authenticator apps: Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator
- SMS codes: Less secure but better than nothing
- Hardware keys: Most secure option (YubiKey, etc.)
- Backup codes: Always save these in a secure location
Platform Templates Guide
Our platform templates are pre-configured settings optimized for specific services, ensuring your passwords meet each platform's requirements while maximizing security.
Gmail
Length: 12-16 characters
Requirements: Mixed case, numbers, symbols
Why: Google requires strong passwords for account security and 2FA compatibility
Apple ID
Length: 8-32 characters
Requirements: Upper/lowercase, number, no spaces
Why: Apple's strict security policies require complex passwords for device and payment protection
Banking
Length: 16-20 characters
Requirements: Maximum complexity, all character types
Why: Financial institutions require the highest security standards for protecting sensitive data
Social Media
Length: 10-14 characters
Requirements: Mixed case, numbers, some symbols
Why: Balances security with platform limitations while protecting personal information
Gaming
Length: 12-16 characters
Requirements: Mixed case, numbers, limited symbols
Why: Gaming platforms often have symbol restrictions but require strong passwords for account value protection
Work/Corporate
Length: 14-18 characters
Requirements: High complexity, all character types
Why: Corporate environments require strong passwords to protect sensitive business data and comply with security policies
Password Security Deep Dive
What Makes a Password Strong?
Length (Most Important)
Each additional character exponentially increases security. A 12-character password is vastly stronger than an 8-character one.
Character Diversity
Using uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols increases the "alphabet size" making brute force attacks exponentially harder.
Unpredictability
Avoiding common words, patterns, and personal information makes dictionary attacks ineffective.
Uniqueness
Using different passwords for each account prevents credential stuffing attacks from compromising multiple accounts.
Understanding Entropy & Crack Time
Password Entropy
Entropy measures password randomness in bits. Higher entropy = stronger password.
Crack Time Estimates
Time to crack with modern hardware (assuming 1 billion guesses/second):
Common Password Attack Methods
Brute Force
Systematically trying every possible combination. Defeated by length and complexity.
Dictionary Attack
Using common words and phrases. Defeated by avoiding predictable patterns.
Credential Stuffing
Using leaked passwords from other breaches. Defeated by unique passwords.
Social Engineering
Guessing based on personal information. Defeated by random generation.
Character Set Guide
Character Types & Their Impact
Uppercase & Lowercase (52 chars)
Doubles your character pool from 26 to 52. Essential for most platforms and significantly improves security.
Numbers (10 chars)
Adds 10 more characters to your pool. Required by most platforms and helps break up letter patterns.
Symbols (~32 chars)
Dramatically increases character pool to ~94 total. Provides the biggest security boost per character added.
Character Pool Impact
Advanced Character Options
Exclude Similar Characters
Removes: 0 O o I l 1
Prevents confusion when typing or reading passwords. Recommended for passwords you'll type frequently.
Exclude Ambiguous Characters
Removes: { } [ ] ( ) / \ ' " ` ~ , ; . < >
Avoids characters that might be interpreted differently by various systems or cause parsing issues.
No Duplicate Characters
Ensures each character appears only once in the password. Slightly reduces predictability but also reduces character pool for longer passwords.
When to Use Each Option
Advanced Security Tips
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Even the strongest password can be compromised. 2FA adds a second layer of security.
Authenticator Apps
Google Authenticator, Authy, or Microsoft Authenticator
Hardware Keys
YubiKey or similar for maximum security
SMS (Less Secure)
Better than nothing, but vulnerable to SIM swapping
Password Managers
Essential tools for managing unique, strong passwords for every account.
Recommended: 1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass, Dashlane
Account Recovery Best Practices
Secure Recovery Email
Use a separate, secure email account for password recovery
Backup Codes
Store 2FA backup codes in a secure location
Security Questions
Use random answers, not real personal information
Regular Updates
Keep recovery information current and accessible

Frequently Asked Questions
Our password generator uses cryptographically secure random number generation to create passwords. All generation happens locally in your browser - no passwords are sent to our servers or stored anywhere.
A strong password is long (12+ characters), uses a mix of character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols), avoids common words or patterns, and is unique for each account. Our strength meter analyzes these factors in real-time.
Absolutely! Using unique passwords for each account is crucial. If one account is compromised, your other accounts remain secure. Use a password manager to help you manage multiple unique passwords safely.
Change passwords immediately if you suspect a breach. For regular maintenance, update passwords for sensitive accounts (banking, email) every 6-12 months. Focus on using strong, unique passwords rather than frequent changes.
Platform templates are pre-configured settings optimized for specific services (Gmail, Apple ID, etc.). They automatically set appropriate length and character requirements based on each platform's password policies, ensuring compatibility and maximum security.
Yes, reputable password generators are much safer than creating passwords manually. They eliminate human bias and predictable patterns. Our generator works entirely in your browser - no data is transmitted or stored externally.
Always store generated passwords in a secure password manager immediately after creation. If you lose a password, use the account recovery options provided by the service, then generate and save a new secure password.
Yes, our generator is designed with security in mind. It uses browser-native cryptographic functions, operates entirely offline, and doesn't store or transmit any data. For maximum security, always enable two-factor authentication on sensitive accounts.
