how hard is it for someone to crack a password?


Recommended Posts

I am not an expert on this matter so anyone feel free to correct me but unless there is some kind of specific exploit with whatever logon system you are using, you would need to brute force the password, meaning trying something over and over. If you used a standard work like apple your password would probably be cracked rather quick as the first thing in brute forcing is to run all the words in the dictionary as the password (automated of course).

Again if I'm off on some of this, feel free to correct me.

Do a google for brutus. It's one of the most commonly used brute force password crackers for web/network applications. Look at it's specs speedwise and it will give you a general idea and an understanding of how it's done.

yup, besides people testing out the common or any word that may have significant meaning to someone, brute force is the way to go. the hacking in movies are just so bs. unless of course, those people happen to have the ability to guess the winning number to the lottery too.

depends on what you are trying to hack. Like looking for vulnerablities or reciveing info that is being sent form a website which of course would be envrypted with 128 bit. Which would take a long time to decrypt, plus each website (if thats what u are hacking) would have each word stand for something else. You would deffinately would need inside info. and as far as someone hacking ur hotmail account just use letters and numbers and you will be fine. :)

its insanely easy to crack webpasswords depending on how many connections u can send to the http form thing or w/e like yahoo limits it so its hard and locks you out but other ones r easy. good bf attempts try derivateivs of the username then the most common 100000 words, then go from however u set it, but if its case sensitive just put 1 lowercase and 1 number and it will be A BITCH to crack and brutus sucks lamos use it, and 128 bit doesnt take a long time to decrypt depening on how it is encrypted

if you're so horny, beside getting good password cracking soft, you need good dictionary, specially trained for porn sites..

with my highly trained dictionary file of 15000 entries i have over 90% success rate. :D

sorry, my dictionary file is not for share.

good dictionaries are as hard to come by as british with strait teeth ;) .

but you can train your own dictionary. there are actually programs that go around known porn password sites and collect those username:password combos.

and there are sites that list(and review) web password cracking tools and other stuff you might need for such things.

don't ask or PM me for url or names of those. google is all you need :D
