SSH Key Generator

Generate SSH key pairs for secure authentication.
Note: This tool generates simulated SSH key pairs for demonstration purposes. For production use, generate SSH keys using the ssh-keygen command on your system.
Security Reminders:
  • Never share your private key with anyone
  • Store private keys with restricted permissions (chmod 600)
  • Add the public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on remote servers
  • Use a passphrase for additional security in production
  • For real SSH keys, use ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]"

Features

  • Generate SSH key pairs for demonstration
  • Support for RSA (2048/4096-bit) and Ed25519 algorithms
  • Add custom comments to identify keys
  • Separate public and private key display
  • Download both keys as separate files
  • Security best practices and reminders
  • Instructions for real SSH key generation

How to Use

  1. Select the Key Type (Ed25519 recommended for modern systems)
  2. Optionally add a Comment to identify the key
  3. Click Generate SSH Key Pair
  4. Copy the public key to add to remote servers
  5. Download and securely store the private key
  6. For production, use the ssh-keygen command instead
