Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a password strong?
A strong password should be at least 12 characters long and include a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. It should avoid predictable patterns, common words, and personal information. Our generator creates random passwords that meet these criteria for maximum security.
How often should I change my passwords?
Security experts now recommend changing passwords only when there's a reason to believe they may have been compromised, rather than on a fixed schedule. However, you should use unique passwords for each account and change them immediately if a service you use reports a data breach.
What's the best way to remember complex passwords?
The safest approach is to use a reputable password manager that can generate, store, and auto-fill strong unique passwords for all your accounts. This way, you only need to remember one master password. Alternatively, you can use a passphrase method where you create a sentence that's meaningful to you but difficult for others to guess.
