Passphrase generator: security and ease combined

A passphrase is a sequence of random words that functions as a password. Unlike traditional passwords full of hard-to-remember symbols and numbers, passphrases combine high security with ease of memorization. This concept was popularized by the xkcd comic "correct horse battery staple".

A passphrase's security is based on the number of words and the size of the dictionary from which they are selected. Each word adds approximately 7.6 bits of entropy. A 4-word phrase reaches about 30 bits, sufficient for many uses.

Our tool generates passphrases using common words randomly selected with crypto.getRandomValues, the browser's cryptographically secure random number generator. Everything is generated locally in your browser.
