Question 1

How strong should a password be?

Accepted Answer

A strong password should be at least 16 characters and include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Each added character exponentially increases the number of possible combinations, making brute-force attacks impractical.

Question 2

Are the generated passwords stored anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. All passwords are generated locally in your browser using the Web Crypto API. Nothing is sent to any server and nothing is stored — not even locally. Each page refresh generates new passwords.

Question 3

What is password entropy?

Accepted Answer

Entropy measures how unpredictable a password is, in bits. Higher entropy means more possible combinations. A 16-character password using all character types typically has 100+ bits of entropy, which is considered very strong.

Question 4

What characters should a strong password include?

Accepted Answer

A strong password should include uppercase letters (A-Z), lowercase letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and symbols (!@#$%^&*). Avoiding dictionary words and including all four character sets maximises security.
