2. Rainbow table - Wikipedia

   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 ...

3. Password cracking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_cracking

   In cryptanalysis and computer security, password cracking is the process of guessing passwords [ 1] protecting a computer system. 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. [ 2] Another type of approach is password spraying ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)

   In cryptography, a salt is random data fed as an additional input to a one-way function that hashes data, a password or passphrase. [ 1] Salting helps defend against attacks that use precomputed tables (e.g. rainbow tables ), by vastly growing the size of table needed for a successful attack. [ 2][ 3][ 4] It also helps protect passwords that ...

9. Challenge–response authentication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenge–response...

   Since the password itself is not stored, a challenge-response algorithm will usually have to use the hash of the password as the secret instead of the password itself. In this case, an intruder can use the actual hash, rather than the password, which makes the stored hashes just as sensitive as the actual passwords.
