Strong Password Generator
Generate cryptographically secure passwords and Diceware passphrases. Features real-time entropy analysis, crack-time estimation, and offline QR code generation.
About
This Enterprise-Grade Password Generator is designed for zero-trust environments. Unlike standard tools that rely on pseudo-random number generators (PRNG), this engine utilizes the browser's window.crypto API to access the operating system's entropy pool, ensuring that generated strings are cryptographically secure and statistically unpredictable.
Formulas
The strength of the password is calculated using the Shannon Entropy formula:
H = L × log2(N)
Where L is the password length and N is the size of the character pool (e.g., 62 for alphanumeric). Crack time is estimated by dividing the total combinations (2H) by the attacker's guess rate (approx 100 billion/sec for modern GPU clusters).
