This is How Hackers Crack Passwords!
Tech Raj
A password will never be saved as a plain text
in a website 's database as only it 's encrypted
or in other words, the hashed password is
saved in the Facebook database, but not the
plain text.. The only possible way is to reverse
the hash into its plaintext form, but this is
highly impossible because a hash is a oneway
function.. dictionary attack and bruteforce
attack are quite similar in picks area attack. You
have a word list a huge text file with loads of
passwords. In this attack, the hacker writes a
code which compares the password with the
password hash of each and every password
that exists in the world list file. If any hashes
match, then it means that the cracking is
successful and we now have the password in a
plaintext form. have any doubts regarding this
video.
