The Importance of Strong, Random Passwords
Why You Shouldn't Use "password123"
In an age of constant data breaches, a weak password is like leaving your front door unlocked. Attackers use automated tools to try millions of common passwords in seconds. A strong, randomly generated password is your first and best line of defense against unauthorized access to your accounts.
What Makes a Password Strong?
- Length: The longer, the better. Each additional character exponentially increases the number of possible combinations an attacker would have to guess. This tool allows up to 128 characters.
- Complexity: Using a mix of character types—uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols—dramatically increases a password's strength.
- Randomness: The best passwords are unpredictable. Avoid using personal information, dictionary words, or common substitutions (like '@' for 'a'). This generator creates truly random strings.
