Create strong passwords you can actually trust
Length and randomness beat clever substitutions. Use a private generator and a password manager for real-world security.
What makes a password strong now
Attackers rarely guess “P@ssw0rd1” by hand. They use breached lists and automated guessing. Long, random passwords (or passphrases) remain the practical defense for accounts that matter.
Reusing one good password across sites is still dangerous. One breach becomes many.
Generate, store, don’t reuse
Generate a unique password per important account, store it in a reputable password manager, and enable two-factor authentication where available. A browser generator is useful when you need a strong secret quickly without installing another app first.
Avoid emailing passwords to yourself or saving them in plain screenshots.
Passphrases vs random strings
Random character strings are excellent when a password manager fills them for you. Passphrases (several unrelated words) can be easier to type when you must enter them manually, as long as they are long and not famous quotes.
Whatever you choose, uniqueness matters more than clever leetspeak. Prefer length and randomness over predictable patterns.
