Create secure passwords with openssl

Ex:- zodiac@zodioc:~$ openssl rand 12 -base64
mPoMmGadLZPBLw8Y


The above command created a random base 64 encoding string each time it is run . since the string you get from the command is different each time the command is run , it is secure and easy to create strong password this way
