Generate Strong Passwords On-Device (Not in the Cloud)
You don’t need a cloud site to roll a strong password. Generate it in the browser, then stash it in a real password manager.
Cloud password generators are weird when you think about it. You’re asking a stranger’s server to invent the secret that unlocks your bank or CMS - then hoping they don’t log it.
Your browser already has Web Crypto. A generator can stay entirely on-device. Candidate passwords never need to show up in someone else’s access log.
Length beats cleverness
Humans invent patterns. Attackers know those patterns. A long random string (or a solid passphrase) beats “P@ssw0rd!” every time.
Use Password Generator to set length and character classes, then put the result straight into a password manager. Not a Notes screenshot. Not a sticky on the monitor.
Quick checklist
- One password per account. Boring, effective.
- Don’t reuse work passwords on personal stuff (or the other way around).
- Let the manager autofill. Forced 90-day rotates without a manager just train people to write weaker secrets.
