What is password cracking?

Password cracking, which is used in cryptanalysis and computer security, is the process of obtaining passwords from data that has been scrambled and stored in or sent over a computer network.

Password cracking can be used to gain illegal access to a system, assist a user in recovering a lost password (because changing a password altogether would require System Administration rights), or as a preventive step by the system, administrators to look for passwords that are simple to crack. When a specific file's permissions are restricted, password cracking is used on a file-by-file basis to obtain digital evidence to which a judge has granted access.
