password protection includes maths ..you guys must have heard about the probability thing ??
This branch of maths is most important in here.First of all you should know how many formats are there when typing .. it has alphabets(uppercase e.g capital letters and lowercase letters e.g small letters),numbers and special characters .
lets say if i put my password as "computer".. that simple it wouldnt be that difficult for any hacker to analyse my password .the process by which they crack hack account is called a BRUTE FORCE ATTACK.
In this attack the software being used by the user tries up different sets of alphabets first then numbers then special characters .if my password is that simple it would take just 30min at max to decrypt my password.
this simple formula explains it all.remember i had used the password "computer".
my password has 8 characters and if any hackers tries to hack it he'll use all the possible combinations for the alphabets first.the max number of occurances would be 1562275 that is such a small target to achieve.
things to remember when setting up a password are
Start your password with upper case.
then shift towards lower case
include special characters
include numbers
example of such a password can be CasE@911
by keeping these little points in mind you can have a string password!
