Frequently Asked Questions

How do password crackers work?

Common methods: dictionary attacks (trying common words), brute force (trying all combinations), credential stuffing (using leaked password lists) and hybrid attacks (words with number substitutions).

What is a dictionary attack?

A dictionary attack tries common words, phrases and their variations (p@ssw0rd, password123) against your account. Passwords based on real words are vulnerable even with substitutions.

What crack time means?

Crack time is an estimate of how long it would take automated software to guess your password by trying all possibilities. A strong password should take centuries to crack on modern hardware.

Why should I never reuse passwords?

If one website is breached, attackers use your leaked password to try logging into your other accounts (credential stuffing). Unique passwords for every account contain breaches to a single site.
