Brute Force Attacks / Password cracking
A common threat that web developers have to face is password cracking attacks known as a brute force attack.
What is a Brute Force Attack?
How can you defend against them?
To protect against brute force attacks it is recommended to have a strong password. A strong password does not use personal information, includes numbers,symbols,upper and lowercase characters.You can also use two step authentication or limit the maxium amount of login attempts
An brute force attack is an attempt to discover a password by stematically trying every possible combination of letters,numbers and symbols until you discover the one correct combination that works

Wouldn't it take too much time?
For short passwords this method is very fast.However typing it by hand for longer passwords would take too long so dictionary attacks are used.
What is a dictionary attack?
A dictionary attack tries to defeat a cipher or authentication mechanism by trying to determine its decryption key or passphrase by. systamatically entering every word in a dictionary as a passwordA dictionary attack tries to defeat a cipher or authentication mechanism by trying to determine its decryption key or passphrase by. systamatically entering every word in a dictionary as a password
