    For the sixth year, NordPass, an online password manager, has released a list of the 200 most common passwords − ones that should be avoided due to how easy they are to "crack," or hack.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_stretching

    Such implementations of SHA-1 exist using as few as 5,000 gates, and 400 clock cycles. [6] With multi-million gate FPGAs costing less than $100, [7] an attacker can build a fully unrolled hardware cracker for about $5,000. [citation needed] Such a design, clocked at 100 MHz can test about 300,000 keys/second. The attacker is free to choose a ...

    This means a digit is encrypted by 3 ciphertext characters; 2 for the escape character, 1 for the digit itself. In this scheme, each digit requires an escape character encoded before it. Double-Digit Scheme : If the escape character is encoded by two different digits (e.g. '26' in the example above), then multiple digits can be encoded by ...

  5. Salt (cryptography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)

    In cryptography, a salt is random data fed as an additional input to a one-way function that hashes data, a password or passphrase. [1] Salting helps defend against attacks that use precomputed tables (e.g. rainbow tables), by vastly growing the size of table needed for a successful attack.

    One of the modes John can use is the dictionary attack. [6] It takes text string samples (usually from a file, called a wordlist, containing words found in a dictionary or real passwords cracked before), encrypting it in the same format as the password being examined (including both the encryption algorithm and key), and comparing the output to the encrypted string.

  7. Hamming code - Wikipedia

    Since [7, 4, 3] = [n, k, d] = [2 m − 1, 2 m − 1 − m, 3]. The parity-check matrix H of a Hamming code is constructed by listing all columns of length m that are pair-wise independent. Thus H is a matrix whose left side is all of the nonzero n -tuples where order of the n -tuples in the columns of matrix does not matter.

    As mentioned above, rows 1, 2, and 4 of G should look familiar as they map the data bits to their parity bits: p 1 covers d 1, d 2, d 4; p 2 covers d 1, d 3, d 4; p 3 covers d 2, d 3, d 4; The remaining rows (3, 5, 6, 7) map the data to their position in encoded form and there is only 1 in that row so it is an identical copy.

  9. Password cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_cracking

    In cryptanalysis and computer security, password cracking is the process of guessing passwords [1] protecting a computer system.A common approach (brute-force attack) is to repeatedly try guesses for the password and to check them against an available cryptographic hash of the password. [2]
