This password generator creates cryptographically secure random passwords. The strength is calculated based on entropy, which measures the unpredictability of the password. Higher entropy means stronger passwords that are harder to crack.

Did You Know?

The concept of passwords dates back to ancient Rome, where soldiers used 'watchwords' to identify friend from foe during night patrols.

The first computer password was implemented at MIT in 1961 by Fernando Corbató for the Compatible Time-Sharing System (CTSS).

A strong password should be at least 12 characters long and include a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols to resist brute force attacks.
