Abstract :

User authentication is becoming more and more crucial as internet technologies, social networks, and other related fields evolve quickly in order to protect user data. One of the popular techniques for achieving identification for authorized users and defense against intruders is password authentication. However, password security is facing great challenges. Over the past few years, numerous password-cracking techniques have been created, and security measures against password-cracking are constantly being developed. The process of guessing or retrieving a password from a stored place or through a data transmission system is known as password cracking. This paper is mainly to give a brief review of password-cracking techniques, key password-cracking technologies, password-cracking protection, and a comparison between the traditional and advanced password-cracking techniques. This paper will discuss what password cracking is, what to do if an attacker can try to log in to the system using a username and password combination, what steps to take if an attacker has access to how passwords are stored on the system, how to execute it when an attacker can somehow observe password entry, and how graphical passwords and graphical password cracks operate. Passwords have been a target for hackers due to the significant benefits, and password cracking occurrences have increased. It's becoming essential to conduct research on password-cracking technology.
