Brute-force attack (exhaustive search)
In cryptanalysis, a brute force attack is a method of defeating a cryptographic scheme by trying a large
number of possibilities; for example, exhaustively work ing through all possible k eys in order to decrypt a
message. This definition was taken from Wikipedia site.
Well, to put it in simple words, brute-force attack guess a password by trying all probable variants by
given character set. Eg. checking all combination in lower Latin character set, that is
'abcdefghijk lmnopqrstuvwxyz'. Brute-force attack is very slow. For example, once you set lower Latin
charset for your brute-force attack, you'll have to look through 217 180 147 158 variants for 1-8 symbol
password. It must be used only if other attacks have failed to recover your password.
