    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength

    Password expiration was previously trying to serve two purposes: [56] If the time to crack a password is estimated to be 100 days, password expiration times fewer than 100 days may help ensure insufficient time for an attacker. If a password has been compromised, requiring it to be changed regularly may limit the access time for the attacker.

  6. Brute-force attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brute-force_attack

    When password-guessing, this method is very fast when used to check all short passwords, but for longer passwords other methods such as the dictionary attack are used because a brute-force search takes too long. Longer passwords, passphrases and keys have more possible values, making them exponentially more difficult to crack than shorter ones ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_table

    Rainbow table. A rainbow table is a precomputed table for caching the outputs of a cryptographic hash function, usually for cracking password hashes. Passwords are typically stored not in plain text form, but as hash values. If such a database of hashed passwords falls into the hands of attackers, they can use a precomputed rainbow table to ...
