If you’re not the best at making passwords or just don’t want to make one up right off the spot, you would usually run third party applications to generate a good password for you.
Why download third party apps when you already have a password generator for you just waiting to be used in the Terminal?
To create a password:
1. Access Terminal. Username>Applications>Utilities>Terminal
2. On the line provided, write openssl rand -base64 6.
3. Terminal will generate an eight character password for you.
