Random Nonce Generator

Generate a random nonce for AEAD ciphers (GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305). All values are generated on your device using a cryptographically secure random generator — nothing is sent to a server.

About Random Nonce

A nonce ("number used once") is a value that must be unique for each encryption under the same key. AEAD ciphers like AES-GCM (12 bytes) and ChaCha20-Poly1305 use one.

Reusing a nonce with the same key on GCM/ChaCha is very dangerous — it can leak the key. This tool generates a random nonce (default 12 bytes) in hex and Base64.

For XChaCha20-Poly1305 use a 24-byte nonce (set the length). For block modes like CBC/CTR, see Random IV.

FAQ

Are my data or keys sent to a server?

No. Random Nonce runs entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API and client-side libraries. Your data, passwords, and keys never leave your device.
