How to generate secure passwords?
Strong passwords are the backbone of computer security. PassGeni helps you create strong and unbreakable passwords by following these steps:
1. Length: Go to the generator and set the minimum length to 12 characters. The longer the password, the more secure it is.
2. Symbols: Select the symbols to include; the more symbols, the stronger the password. If you need to enter the password later, make sure the symbols are available on your keyboard to make typing easier.
3. Additional characters: To boost security, add extra characters in the designated field. If you don't mind increased typing complexity, import characters from your system's character manager to significantly enhance your password's security.
4. Noise: PassGeni uses mouse movements to generate noise and enhance password randomness. Move the pointer irregularly or repeat a pattern you like several times to generate sufficient noise. If you can’t move the mouse, don’t worry: PassGeni has additional noise sources.
5. Generation: Click “Generate” to display a list of password options. Choose your preferred one, and use it exclusively for a single account.
Security and trust:
PassGeni does NOT store any of the generated passwords, so your information is safe.
By following these steps, you can create strong and unbreakable passwords with PassGeni. Remember that the security of your online accounts depends largely on the quality of your passwords.
Additional advice:
- Use a different password for each account.
- Avoid using personal information or common words in your passwords.
- Consider using a password manager to store your passwords securely.
