Another type of approach is password spraying, which is often automated and occurs slowly over time in order to remain undetected, using a list of common passwords. A common approach ( brute-force attack) is to repeatedly try guesses for the password and to check them against an available cryptographic hash of the password. In cryptanalysis and computer security, password cracking is the process of recovering passwords from data that has been stored in or transmitted by a computer system in scrambled form.
