SuperGenPass another secure password generator

by Tris Hussey on March 5th, 2007

From Google Operating System comes another password generator:

Yesterday I suggested some ideas to keep your passwords secure. In the comments, Thunder Rabbit pointed to a very simple solution to generate secure passwords, without having to remember them. SuperGenPass is a bookmarklet (a bookmark consisting mostly of JavaScript code) that uses a master password as a seed to create passwords for different sites. The nice thing is that the script generates the same password for a domain, but the process is unidirectional: you can’t obtain the master password from a generated password. It’s also cool that your master password is not stored anywhere (unless you want it to be stored in the bookmarklet).

If you’re having trouble making and remembering good passwords, this might do the trick for you.  When I need something secure I still use the Ultra High Security Password Generator, but this might be a good option if you want to have them on the go too.
