To guard ourselves against a word attack or a breach, it is always important to have an awareness of the unremarkably used sorts of attacks. The most common type of attack is password guessing. Hackers can guess the passwords locally or remotely using either manually or through an automated approach. One such attack is Dictionary Attack. A dictionary attack tries to make an authentication mechanism fail by sequentially entering each word in a dictionary as a password or trying to find the decryption key of an encrypted message or document. In this paper, an empirical research on how dictionary attack works are performed. In addition to that, different techniques and approaches to the existing dictionary attacks are implemented to make the system more robust. Furthermore, a comparison of methods is performed to find which approach is better to protect the system. |
