Генерация случайных паролей

Мне нравится смотреть на генерацию паролей, точно так же, как генерация программных ключей. Необходимо выбрать из массива символов, которые следуют хорошей практике. Возьмите то, чем @Radu094 ответил , и измените его для следования хорошей практике. Не помещайте каждую букву в символьный массив. Некоторые буквы более трудно сказать или понять по телефону.

необходимо также рассмотреть использование контрольной суммы на пароле, который был сгенерирован, чтобы удостовериться, что он был сгенерирован Вами. Хороший способ выполнить это состоит в том, чтобы использовать алгоритм LUHN .

Для этого вида пароля я склонен использовать систему, это, вероятно, генерирует более легко "используемые" пароли. Короткий, часто составляемый из pronouncable фрагментов и нескольких чисел, и без межсимвольной неоднозначности (который является 0 или O? 1 или я?). Что-то как

string[] words = { 'bur', 'ler', 'meh', 'ree' };
string word = "";

Random rnd = new Random();
for (i = 0; i < 3; i++)
   word += words[rnd.Next(words.length)]

int numbCount = rnd.Next(4);
for (i = 0; i < numbCount; i++)
  word += (2 + rnd.Next(7)).ToString();

return word;

(Введенный прямо в браузер, так используйте только в качестве инструкций. Кроме того, добавьте больше слов).

Это намного больше, но я думаю, что это выглядит немного более всесторонним: http://www.obviex.com/Samples/Password.aspx
