HPASS Password Generator

Warm-up ( 🔥 ) and Top Secret ( 🤐 ) are never saved. You may want to use them for extra security. In the unlikely event of your device being compromised and locally stored (and encrypted) HPASS data hacked, passwords generated with non-empty one (or both) of these fields, still will be safe.

Edit & Save Settings

Hint: leave it empty to change generic settings. You may need to create hint/site specific settings if a site does not allow Special Character in your generic settings, or demands longer/shorter password etc. In such a case, enter a Hint, modify Special Character and/or Length.
Secret (🤫): makes generated passwords unique for you.
Special Character (🌶): one or more !\"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[ ]^_`{|}~
Length (📏): longer is better, note however that a lot of sites have unreasonably short upper limit - 15 seems to be a reasonable balance between security and a need to create many site-specific settings.

Why strong passwords are important?

Using strong passwords is crucial for protecting your online accounts and sensitive information. Strong passwords are difficult for hackers to guess, reducing the risk of unauthorized access. Strong passwords in conjuction with a tool which makes it easy to generate them (like HPASS), and eliminates a need to remember or store passwords, offer several advantages:

Security: Strong password include a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols, making them harder to crack through brute force or dictionary attacks.

Privacy: Robust passwords safeguard your personal and financial data, preventing identity theft and privacy breaches.

Account Protection: Strong passwords help defend against unauthorized access to your accounts, securing your emails, social media, and online banking.

Simplified Digital Life: Easy to generate strong passwords minimize "Forgot your password?" situations and the need of going through the time consuming process of resetting password.

Passwords Do's:

Use account specific passwords

For all important accounts (email, financial sites, etc.) use multi-factor authentication (MFA) whenever possible.

Use long (at least 12-15 characters), complex passwords. Longer is always better, but some sites have a restriction of password length. Default length 15 selected for HPASS seems to be a reasonable compromise between security and convenience.

Passwords Don't

Do not reuse the same password for multiple accounts

Do not use easy patterns, dictionary words or easily guessable personal data. Few examples of most commonly used (and hacked!) passwords: 123456, password, qwerty, 111111, abc123, password1, iloveyou, 1q2w3e4r.

Never share your passwords with others, particularly as plain text in email, etc.

But how?

You may ask, but how possibly can I create, and remember long, complex and site specific passwords for multiple - perhaps hundreds - sites. As you may have guessed, our recommendation is to use HPASS to simplify this aspect of your life :) - see more on how HPASS can help, and why it might be better solution for you than password manager, in Info section.

Password Generators vs. Managers

One of the often recommended solutions is to use Password Manager [PM]. The advantage of PMs is that in addition to storing passwords they allow to store any number of other data (credit card numbers, PINs, social security numbers, etc) and some allow to share this information with other users. While convenient, this type of centralized storage attracts hackers with the prospect of potentially stealing sensitive and valuable data for milions of users and creates single point of failure.

Try HPASS. It is the single-minded and narrowly focused tool to help with easy generation and use of strong, secure and site-specific passwords. You can find more on how HPASS can help, and why you may want to consider it, in Info section.
