Holiday passphrase generator

Choosing the right passphrase can feel like picking the right gift over the holidays. It can be hard to know where to start or what the best options are. We created a helpful holiday-themed passphrase prompt generator that you can use to make your devices (especially any new ones that you’ll receive this year) and accounts more secure.

You’ll be prompted to answer four questions with one-word answers. Then you can combine the four random words to create your unique passphrase (for example, TurkeyPeppermintGingerbreadSocks). Your total passphrase should be at least 15 characters long, so try to choose words that have 5 or more characters. Plus, passphrases can be used indefinitely, unless you think they have been compromised.

Use this password generator anytime you need inspiration for creating a new, unique passphrase.
