What makes scrypt different?
Scrypt is designed to require significant memory as well as processing time, making large-scale password guessing more expensive.

This tool runs in your browser. Your input is processed locally and is not uploaded.
About this Tool
Use this scrypt generator to test password hashing and key derivation parameters. Because scrypt is intentionally resource-intensive, parameter limits should protect the browser from excessive memory use.
Examples
- Generate a scrypt hash
- Derive a 256-bit scrypt key
- Test custom N, r and p values
Frequently Asked Questions
What do N, r and p mean?
N controls the main work factor, r controls block size and p controls parallelization.
Can high settings freeze the browser?
Yes. Extremely high memory or work parameters can make the browser slow or unresponsive, so the tool should enforce safe limits.
