What Do the Security Tools Cover?
The cryptographic utilities developers reach for while building auth systems and securing applications. Password generators where you control length, character mix, and exclusion rules. Hash generators that support MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512, and the rest of the SHA family. A bcrypt generator for hashing passwords the right way. AES-256 encryption and decryption for locking down sensitive text. A JWT decoder that breaks tokens apart and shows you the header, payload, and signature without leaving your browser. TOTP code generators for testing 2FA flows. There's also a CSP Generator for building Content-Security-Policy headers, a Credit Card Validator for checking Luhn algorithm compliance, and an Email Header Analyzer for diagnosing mail delivery issues.
Why You'd Use These Instead of Some Random Site
The whole point of security tools is that you're dealing with sensitive material, passwords, tokens, hashes, encrypted payloads. Sending that stuff to an unknown third-party server kind of defeats the purpose. Every Toolsvu security tool that touches sensitive input runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript and the Web Crypto API. Your passwords never leave your machine. Your JWT payloads stay local. The bcrypt hashes get computed right on your device. Nothing goes over the wire. That matters when you're debugging production auth tokens or generating credentials you'll actually use.
Security Tools Developers Grab Most Often
- Password Generator, Spit out strong random passwords with fine-grained control over length, uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols, and characters to exclude.
- Hash Generator, Type or paste any text and get its MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512, and other hash digests all at once. Useful for checksum verification and quick comparisons.
- JWT Decoder, Paste a JWT and instantly see the decoded header and payload as formatted JSON, plus signature info. Beats squinting at Base64 in your terminal.
- UUID Generator, Mint fresh v4 UUIDs for primary keys, session tokens, correlation IDs, or anywhere you need guaranteed uniqueness.
- AES Encrypt / Decrypt, Lock text with AES-256 using a passphrase, or unlock an existing ciphertext. The entire operation happens client-side, nothing leaves your browser.
