Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How secure are these randomly generated passwords? A: Extremely secure. We use cryptographically secure random number generation (crypto.getRandomValues) that creates unpredictable passwords resistant to all known attack methods. Each password has billions of possible combinations, making them virtually uncrackable.
Q: What's the ideal password length? A: We recommend 16 characters minimum for high-security accounts like banking or email. For ultra-sensitive data, use 20-32 characters. Even 12 characters provides good protection for less critical accounts.
Q: Can I trust this free password generator? A: Absolutely. All password generation happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. No passwords are ever sent to our servers, stored in databases, or logged anywhere. When you close this page, all traces disappear.
Q: Why do I need different passwords for each account? A: Using the same password everywhere is like using one key for your house, car, and office. If hackers steal that one password from a breached website, they can access all your accounts. Unique passwords contain the damage to just one account.
Q: What makes a password truly random? A: True randomness means no patterns, no dictionary words, and no predictable sequences. Our generator uses cryptographic randomness to ensure each character is selected with equal probability, creating passwords that are mathematically unpredictable.
Q: How do custom characters affect password strength? A: Custom characters can enhance security when used wisely. Add unique symbols or characters not found on standard keyboards. However, avoid predictable patterns like birthdays or names. Random placement option ensures your custom characters don't create weak patterns.
Q: Should I write down these passwords? A: For maximum security, use a reputable password manager to store your generated passwords. If you must write them down, keep them in a secure, locked location. Never store passwords in plain text on your computer or phone.
Q: How often should I change my passwords? A: Change passwords immediately if a service reports a breach. Otherwise, security experts now recommend using strong, unique passwords rather than frequent changes. Regular changes often lead to weaker passwords as people struggle to remember them.
