Security Notice
This advanced password generator uses cryptographically secure random generation entirely in your browser. No data is sent to our servers or stored anywhere. For maximum security, use generated passwords immediately, clear your clipboard after use, and consider using a password manager for storage.
How to Use
## How to Use
1. **Basic Settings**: Configure password length, character types, and generation count
2. **Advanced Settings**: Enable custom rules and exclude specific characters
3. **Generate**: Click the generate button to create passwords
4. **Analyze**: Review strength, entropy, and time-to-crack information
5. **Copy**: Use the copy button to copy passwords to clipboard
## Custom Rules Configuration
- **No Consecutive Characters**: Prevents patterns like "aaa" or "111"
- **No Common Patterns**: Excludes keyboard patterns like "qwerty" or "123456"
- **No Repeating Pairs**: Prevents patterns like "abab" or "1212"
- **Balanced Symbols**: Ensures at least one special character
- **Mixed Case Required**: Requires both uppercase and lowercase letters
## Security Best Practices
1. Use passwords with high entropy (80+ bits recommended)
2. Enable multiple custom rules for enhanced security
3. Exclude similar characters (l, 1, I, O, 0) when possible
4. Generate multiple passwords and choose the strongest
5. Use a password manager for secure storage
6. Clear clipboard after copying passwords

Technical Details
## Technical Implementation
### Cryptographically Secure Generation
- Uses crypto.getRandomValues() for secure random number generation
- Implements proper entropy calculation based on character set size
- Ensures uniform distribution across the character set
### Entropy Calculation
- Formula: log₂(character_set_size^password_length)
- Provides accurate measure of password strength
- Accounts for character set restrictions and exclusions
### Time-to-Crack Estimation
- Based on 1 billion guesses per second (modern GPU capability)
- Calculates total possible combinations: 2^entropy
- Provides realistic time estimates for brute force attacks
### Custom Rule Validation
- Uses regex patterns for rule validation
- Implements retry logic for rule compliance
- Supports complex pattern matching requirements
### Character Set Management
- Dynamic character set based on user selections
- Proper handling of character exclusions
- Support for custom character restrictions
### Performance Optimization
- Efficient password generation algorithms
- Minimal memory usage for large character sets
- Fast validation of custom rules
