2. Random password generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_password_generator

   A random password generator is a software program or hardware device that takes input from a random or pseudo-random number generator and automatically generates a password. Random passwords can be generated manually, using simple sources of randomness such as dice or coins, or they can be generated using a computer.

3. Time-based one-time password - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_One-Time_Password

   Time-based one-time password ( TOTP) is a computer algorithm that generates a one-time password (OTP) using the current time as a source of uniqueness. As an extension of the HMAC-based one-time password algorithm (HOTP), it has been adopted as Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard RFC 6238.

4. Salt (cryptography) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)

   Salt (cryptography) In cryptography, a salt is random data fed as an additional input to a one-way function that hashes data, a password or passphrase. [1] Salting helps defend against attacks that use precomputed tables (e.g. rainbow tables ), by vastly growing the size of table needed for a successful attack.

6. Password strength - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength

   Password strength. Options menu of the random password generation tool in KeePass. Enabling more character subsets raises the strength of generated passwords a small amount, whereas increasing their length raises the strength a large amount. Password strength is a measure of the effectiveness of a password against guessing or brute-force attacks.

7. Cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographically_secure...

   A cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator ( CSPRNG) or cryptographic pseudorandom number generator ( CPRNG) is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) with properties that make it suitable for use in cryptography. It is also referred to as a cryptographic random number generator ( CRNG ).
