Secret Token Generator
Generate cryptographically secure API keys, secret tokens, and random hex/base64url strings using Web Crypto PRNG.
How to Use Secret Token Generator
- Specify your security requirements (password length, character types, or hashing algorithm) in secret token generator.
- Adjust parameters such as uppercase letters, numbers, symbols, or salt keys.
- Click Generate to produce cryptographically strong keys or hashes client-side.
- Copy the generated credentials or hash digests safely to your clipboard.

Frequently Asked Questions
What random number generator is used to generate secret tokens?
EverySolve uses the browser's native Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues), which interfaces directly with the operating system's cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generator (CSPRNG, such as /dev/urandom on Linux/macOS or CryptGenRandom on Windows). It never uses predictable Math.random().
What token formats are available and what are their use cases?
Three standard encodings are supported: Hexadecimal (0-9, a-f, ideal for hash salts and database IDs), Base64URL (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, '-', '_', standard for JWTs, OAuth tokens, and webhooks), and Alphanumeric (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, optimal for user-facing activation codes and API keys).
How many bits of entropy does a 32-character token provide?
A 32-character hexadecimal token provides 128 bits of entropy (4 bits per character). A 32-character Base64URL token provides 192 bits of entropy (6 bits per character). A 32-character alphanumeric token provides approximately 190 bits of entropy.
Can I use generated tokens as API keys, bearer tokens, or webhook secrets?
Yes. The generated tokens possess cryptographic-grade randomness with zero predictable seed patterns, making them suitable for production API keys, HMAC webhook signing keys, session tokens, and CSRF protection secrets.
Are generated tokens stored on EverySolve servers or accessible by third parties?
No. Tokens are generated strictly within your browser's local JavaScript execution context. EverySolve has zero visibility into generated values, and no tokens are logged, stored, or transmitted over the internet.
