Free Online Secure Password Generator

A secure password generator emits cryptographically random passwords from a configurable character set using the browser's `crypto.getRandomValues` source.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Drag the length slider to the password length you need (16+ recommended).
  2. Pick the character classes — upper, lower, digits, symbols.
  3. Optionally enable Exclude ambiguous or customise the symbol set.
  4. Click Generate. Check the entropy preview, then copy the result.

What Is a Secure Password Generator?

This generator uses `crypto.getRandomValues` — the browser's cryptographically secure random source, the same one used to seed TLS session keys — for every character draw. Each character is independent and uniform across whichever character classes you've enabled, and the entropy display shows exactly how many bits of unpredictability the result carries.

A good rule of thumb: aim for at least 80 bits of entropy for a typical account and 128 bits for a high-value one (banking, primary email, password-manager master password). Sixteen random characters drawn from upper + lower + digits + symbols clears 100 bits comfortably. Excluding ambiguous characters (0/O, 1/l/I) makes the password easier to type back from a phone screen or printed page at a small cost in entropy.

Generated passwords are not stored anywhere — close the tab and the history is gone. The right place to keep a generated password is a password manager (Bitwarden, 1Password, KeePass), not a text file or sticky note. Never reuse a password across sites.

Frequently Asked Questions

How random is it?
It uses crypto.getRandomValues, the browser's cryptographically secure random source. Each character is unbiased across the chosen charset.
What's a good length?
16+ characters is the modern minimum. 20–24 for high-value accounts. The displayed entropy bits should be 80 or higher.
Why exclude ambiguous characters?
Removing 0/O, 1/l/I and similar makes a password easier to read back from paper or screenshots without ambiguity.
