Random Base64

Random bytes as Base64.

Generates N cryptographically random bytes and Base64-encodes them. Unlike Random Hex this is Base64. Unlike Password Strength this is raw bytes, not a password score. Bytes 1–64.

What Random Base64 does

Generates N cryptographically random bytes and Base64-encodes them. Unlike Random Hex this is Base64. Unlike Password Strength this is raw bytes, not a password score. Bytes 1–64.

The interactive controls for Random Base64 load after this article so crawlers still read the instructions. Path /crypto/random-base64 is the canonical address. Work happens on this device; Tool-You does not take a copy of the file or pasted text for Random Base64.

How to use Random Base64

  1. Keep this tab on Random Base64 (/crypto/random-base64). Pasting into the wrong Crypto tool (for example Random Hex) changes the job.
  2. Paste or type the input Random Base64 expects. Path hint: crypto · random base64. Random bytes as Base64.
  3. Apply the Random Base64 action only. Base64URL is a different transform (Base64URL with bytes.). Generates N cryptographically random bytes and Base64-encodes them. Unlike Random Hex this is Base64. Unlike Password Strength this is raw bytes, not a password score. Bytes 1–64.
  4. Copy the output of Random Base64 if you need it elsewhere. Size/complexity still follows: Bytes 1–64. Base64 output.
  5. If the text job is actually Cryptographic random hex; count and uppercase., leave Random Base64 and open Random Hex.

When not to use Random Base64

Skip Random Base64 when a neighbor tool matches better — start with Random Hex or Base64URL — or when the description already warns the job will fail. In the tool’s own words: Generates N cryptographically random bytes and Base64-encodes them. Unlike Random Hex this is Base64. Unlike Password Strength this is raw bytes, not a password score. Bytes 1–64.
