WPA2 Password Generator


Recommended Posts

I wrote this for myself as a very basic Python script to make it easy for me to generate secure wifi passwords.  After mentioning it in a podcast I did with some friends recently, they asked me if I could make it easier to use for the common end user, so I compiled it to an EXE file and packaged it up in an installer.

 

You can check it out here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/wpa2gen/

 

If you're paranoid about downloading EXE files from random people, there's also a .tar.gz archive you can grab under the "files" section.  That archive literally just contains the documentation and the plain text .py source code file.  You can run the .py file all by its lonesome if you have Python 3 installed, I just made the EXE/installer so that people who didn't want to do that could just click a button and go.

 

Just thought I would share.  It was never intended to be really widely distributed; it's just, like all the other stuff on my SourceForge profile, things I wrote for myself that I bundled up and decided to share in case somebody else finds them useful.

 

The Python version should run just fine in Linux/OSX, or anything else with Python 3.  It doesn't depend on any particularly exotic libraries, and although it will enable support for colored text if you have colorama installed, having colorama is not required for it to run; it will check to see if it exists and enable/disable the feature as appropriate.

Go for it, like I said, it's just something I originally wrote for myself that I was specifically asked to share, so I did. :-)
