Quantum Diceware Password Generator
Generate truly random diceware passwords using a quantum computer.
- Do you store my generated passwords?
- Nope! Passwords are generated on your device and they will never be sent to our server.
- What are Diceware passwords?
- Watch this Computerphile video to learn more about Diceware passwords.
- Are these passwords secure?
- They sure are! Watch this Computerphile video to learn about how secure Diceware passwords can be.
- Should I roll the dice myself or use number generator?
- Both are great options. Just don't use passwords with numbers or words that you think up yourself. It's always more secure to let randomness such as dice rolls determine your password.
- How are diceware passwords "more secure"?
- A malicious actor could reverse engineer your password by learning what numbers you prefer and what words you commonly use. It's virtually impossible to think of something "random" because we are always influenced by our past experiences and present surroundings. However, creating passwords constructed using words generated by a truly random method means it's much less likely a malicious actor could brute force your password.
- How is this a "quantum" password generator?
- The number generator in this app uses numbers generated by a quantum computer in real-time at The Australian National University lab. The technical details on how they use lasers to measure vacuum fluctuations can be found in their publications.
