Question

Which technology could be used to prevent a cracker from launching a dictionary or brute-force attack off a hash?

Answer 1

1.These attacks can be used against any type of encryption, with varying degrees of success. Brute-force attacks become faster and more effective with each passing day as newer, faster computer hardware is released.
2.A dictionary attack attempts to defeat an authentication mechanism by systematically entering each word in a dictionary as a password or trying to determine the decryption key of an encrypted message or document.

Answer 2

HMAC Technology is the correct answer to the given question.

Explanation:

• HMAC is known as Hash based Message Authentication Code.The Hash based Message Authentication Code is a consequence of research on creating the MAC that are built from the cryptographic hash functions.
• The main objective of the Hash based Message Authentication Code is it  disable the cracker for deploying the dictionary as well as the brute-force attack from the hash function.The HMAC provides the security in efficient way .
