  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. Password strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength

    Most password managers can automatically create strong passwords using a cryptographically secure random password generator, as well as calculating the entropy of the generated password. A good password manager will provide resistance against attacks such as key logging , clipboard logging and various other memory spying techniques.

  4. Cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator

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

    A cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG) or cryptographic pseudorandom number generator (CPRNG) [1] is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) with properties that make it suitable for use in cryptography. It is also loosely known as a cryptographic random number generator (CRNG), [2] [3] which can be compared to "true ...

    help.aol.com/.../tips-to-create-a-strong-password

    Create a strong password. • Use unique words - Don't use obvious words like "password". • Have 12 or more characters - Longer passwords are more secure. • Avoid sequences or repeated characters - Don't use adjacent characters on your keyboard (QWERTY). • Use a different password for each site - Otherwise, if someone acquires one ...

    Password Safe. Password Safe is a free and open-source password manager program originally written for Microsoft Windows but supporting a wide array of operating systems, with compatible clients available for Linux, FreeBSD, Android, IOS, BlackBerry and other operating systems. The Linux version is available for Ubuntu (including the Kubuntu ...

  7. HMAC-based one-time password - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAC-based_one-time_password

    HMAC-based one-time password ( HOTP) is a one-time password (OTP) algorithm based on HMAC. It is a cornerstone of the Initiative for Open Authentication (OATH). HOTP was published as an informational IETF RFC 4226 in December 2005, documenting the algorithm along with a Java implementation. Since then, the algorithm has been adopted by many ...

  8. Pseudorandom function family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_function_family

    Pseudorandom function family. In cryptography, a pseudorandom function family, abbreviated PRF, is a collection of efficiently-computable functions which emulate a random oracle in the following way: no efficient algorithm can distinguish (with significant advantage) between a function chosen randomly from the PRF family and a random oracle (a ...

  9. bcrypt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bcrypt

    For example, bcrypt cannot be used to derive a 512-bit key from a password. At the same time, algorithms like pbkdf2, scrypt, and argon2 are password-based key derivation functions - where the output is then used for the purpose of password hashing rather than just key derivation. Password hashing generally needs to complete < 1000 ms.
