Keeper, creator of one of thebest password managers, has announced that the passphrase generator is now available as part of the Keeper Security suite onAndroid devices.
Reusing the same passwords for every account is a sure way to get your accounts hacked and your data stolen, which is why using a passphrase orpassword generatorfor each account is a recommended best practice.
By generating a random combination of words and symbols of your desired length, you can create a credential that is more secure and complex than a standard password.

This feature provides our users with the ability to generate highly secure credentials directly on their devices, making it easier to safeguard their accounts while streamlining the login process.”
