what is the difference between strong password and weak password?

Passwords should be long, strong, and complex. Mathematically speaking, the difference between a weak password and a strong password is the number of characters available, and hence the number of possible combinations available to construct a password based on those characters.

Weak encryption will lack some or all of these features. Strong encryption will have a large block size and a large key. Every bit of the output (ciphertext) will depend on every bit of the message (plaintext) and every bit of the key. Strong encryption will highly non-linear.

Difference between Basic Authentication and Windows authentication. Windows authentication authenticates the user by validating the credentials against the user account in a Windows domain. Basic authentication verifies the credentials that are provided in a form against the user account that is stored in a database.

I want to know the practical difference between strong and weak ref cursor . Strong ref_cursor will always use to return a value and compiler know the structure during the compile time, but in the weak ref cursor it will not return a value and compiler dosen't know the structure during the compile time.

Here is the difference. You change your password when you KNOW your current password. You reset your password when you DON'T KNOW your current password, but HAVE created a password profile. You also can add a personal email on file, so you can choose to use email verification to reset your password.

Strong ETag indicates that resource content is same for response body and the response headers. Weak ETag indicates that the two representations are semantically equivalent. It compares only the response body. Weak ETags are prefixed with W\ and thus one can easily distinguish between Weak ETags and Strong ETags.

"Gbt3fC79ZmMEFUFJ" is a strong password in practice. It won't be caught by anything but a brute force attack on it (no dictionary words) and it's sixteen characters, which is way above the common standards I see (8 or 6). This password might only be considered weak if the attacker somehow knew no symbols were used.

The difference between Weak & Strong in Swift. A strong reference means that you want to “own” the object you are referencing with this property/variable. In contrast, with a weak reference you signify that you don't want to have control over the object's lifetime.

SSH, or Secure Shell, is similar to SSL in that they're both PKI based and both form encrypted communication tunnels. But whereas SSL is designed for the transmission of information, SSH is designed to execute commands. You generally see SSH when you want to log in to some part of a network remotely.

The WEP key or WPA/WPA2 preshared key/passphrase is not the same as the password for the access point. The password lets you access the access point settings. The WEP key or WPA/WPA2 preshared key/passphrase allows printers and computers to join your wireless network.

The brute-force attack is still one of the most popular password cracking methods. Nevertheless, it is not just for password cracking. Brute-force attacks can also be used to discover hidden pages and content in a web application. This attack is basically “a hit and try” until you succeed.

Passwords and passphrases serve the same purpose. But passwords are generally short, hard to remember and easier to crack. Passphrases are easier to remember and to type, and they're considered more secure due to their length and because you don't need to write them down.

zip files, people may be using the weaker option without realizing it. Those files are more vulnerable to password crackers, Wyden says, such as Advanced Archive Password Recovery. ... zip encryption — Zip 2.0 legacy encryption and Advanced Encryption Standard — the AES is generally understood to be stronger.

A router with WPS enabled is highly vulnerable. A successful attack on your router's WPS function will reveal your network password in a matter of hours – regardless of how strong that password it. Again, there is no point putting a strong password on a weak network.

NTLM — Uses an encrypted challenge/response that includes a hash of the password. ... Basic — Prompts the user for a username and password to authenticate the user against the Windows Active Directory.

/etc/passwd file aims at user account details while /etc/shadow aims at user's password details. ... shadow file can only be read by root account. User's encrypted password can only be stored in /etc/shadow file. pwconv command is used to generate shadow file from passwd file if it doesnt exist.

To my knowledge, enable secret is used to set the password, and it is automatically encrypted once the command is entered. Service password-encryption is used to encrypt all passwords on the device. The difference is that enable secret only encrypts a certain password, service password-encryption encrypts them all.
