Passphrase Generator

Generate a passphrase — several random words that make a strong, memorable password.

Strong and rememberable

A passphrase strings together several random words into a password that is both very strong and far easier to remember than a jumble of symbols. This generates one from random words, giving you security you can actually recall.

Generate a passphrase of random words.

Why words can beat symbols

The insight behind passphrases is that length is what makes a password hard to crack, and several random words produce a long password with an enormous number of possibilities — often stronger than a short password packed with symbols, yet much easier for a human to remember. The crucial word is random: the words must be chosen unpredictably, not a meaningful phrase from a book or song, which an attacker could guess. A handful of genuinely random common words creates something you can picture and recall but that would take an impractical amount of time to guess. This approach is widely recommended precisely because it resolves the usual tension between strong and memorable — you no longer have to choose between a password you can remember and one that is actually secure. Generated in your browser, the passphrase never leaves your device.
