Fortifying Online Security: Investigating the Development and Evaluation of a Password Generator Tool
Keywords:
Fortifying Online Security, Password Generator Tool, Pseudo-random number.Abstract
A password generator is a computer program or hardware device that accepts input from an arbitrary or pseudo-random number encoder and produces a password mechanically. Random passwords can be produced manually, using a basic variety of sources such as dice or coins, or automatically, using a computer.While there are several instances of "random" password generator programmes accessible on the internet, producing randomness may be difficult, and many programmes do not produce random characters in a secure manner.
