How Password Cracking Times Are Estimated
Dedicated brute-force cracking clusters equipped with high-end GPUs can compute over 100,000,000,000 hash calculations per second. A short 8-character password consisting only of lowercase letters has merely 26^8 (approx. 200 billion) combinations, taking under 2 seconds to crack. In contrast, a 16-character passphrase containing mixed symbols and numbers offers over 95^16 combinations, which would take billions of years to exhaust.
