Password Cracking


Hashed strings can often be deciphered through ‘brute forcing’. Bad news, eh? Yes, and particularly if your encrypted passwords/usernames are floating around in an unprotected file somewhere, and some Google hacker comes across it.
You might think that just because your password now looks something like XWE42GH64223JHTF6533H in one of those files, it means that it can’t be cracked? Wrong. Tools are freely available which will decipher a certain proportion of hashed and similarly encoded passwords.
