# Generate age keys from passphrase
## Description
This utility (age-gen-passphrase) generates secret and public keys (into stdout) from your entered passphrase or piped stdin
Strong password highly recomended
## Password selection
To keep entropy at at the same level of $\geq 2^256$ bits, you should use long password.
Exact amount of required characters can be calculated by formula: $\ceil*{256 / log_2(Nchars)}$
