Description

Generate secure passwords on the fly!

Chrome extension version of the Password Generator web application:
http://password-generator.webapp.sk/

How does it work? Application takes a simple alias and a secret (only piece of information you need to remember) and generates powerful password for you on the fly.

Example:

First of all we need a strong secret: "s3cr3t!"

Now lets choose a service. Facebook.com is a good example. Alias for it could be: "facebook"

When we enter "facebook" as alias and "s3cr3t!" as secret into password generator, we get this as a generated password:
"jZhMjJiZTc3YjBjZDI4NzZhMDgzMjg2N"

Pretty good for a password, right? Now every time we enter combination of our alias and secret into the password generator, we get this phrase as our final password which we can use for Facebook.com.

Need another password? Lets take github.com as an example. Our alias could be "github". We already know the secret, no need to change that one. When we enter "github" as alias and "s3cr3t!" as secret, this is our new generated password:
"zUxMzlmMjg2NzU5NmEyYjIwMTBkYmM1N"

Pretty cool, huh? 2 very strong and completely different passwords and all we had to remember was our secret ("s3cr3t!").

And we can continue with additional services/aliases as we need. In the end we'll get strong and unique passwords for each service without all the hassle of remembering or writing down multiple password.

IMPORTANT:
Password generation is done locally in your browser and no data leaves your computer. Extension doesn't observe your actions nor report anything anywhere.

Extension is OPEN SOURCE, hosted on Github:

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
