A Good and Strong Password Generator
Many dashboards that require a password to be assigned make a password generator available.
For those that don't, or if their generator is unsuitable for some reason, the generator further below may be used.
Password best practices recommendations by professionals vary. Generally, they agree that the best and strongest password for most online access is a long one with random characters.
This password generator is designed to provide exactly that type of password.

A password with random characters is a string of characters gathered randomly. The above software takes the characters you provide and assembles your password with them. Each character is selected with a good random-selection function and used to assemble your password one character at a time.
NOTE: No record of generated passwords is recorded on the server. All Ajax interactions are method POST so even your parameters are never recorded in server logs.
If possible, let the password be at least 20 characters long. The longer they are, the more uncrackable they are.
