Enter your secret key (in Base32 format), adjust the options if needed, and click "Generate TOTP". The tool will generate time-based codes that refresh automatically.
Why TOTP Matters for Secure Applications
Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP) are an essential component of modern two-factor authentication systems. They provide an additional layer of security by requiring a time-based code along with user credentials.
Use Cases in Development and Security
This TOTP Generator tool is valuable for:
- Testing 2FA implementations in your applications
- Developers validating TOTP algorithm implementations
- Security professionals working with 2FA systems
- Creating backup access codes for your services that use TOTP
Connection to Cloud Security
Kloudbean's cloud hosting services emphasize security, and TOTP authentication is a critical element of a comprehensive security strategy. Implementing 2FA with TOTP in your cloud-hosted applications helps protect sensitive data and access points.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Is this tool privacy-focused?
Yes, all TOTP generation happens client-side in your browser. Your secret key never leaves your device.
Q. What format should the Secret Key be in?
The secret key should be in Base32 format. This is the standard format used by most TOTP providers and typically looks like "JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP".
Q. Which TOTP algorithm is used?
By default, the tool uses HMAC-SHA1 as specified in RFC 6238, but you can select SHA-256 or SHA-512 for enhanced security.
Q. Can I use this for Google Authenticator or similar apps?
Yes, this tool implements the same TOTP algorithm used by Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, and other 2FA apps.
