What are the odds of brute-forcing an archive with 256-bit encryption? So I thought... In another forum I got the suggestinon to use a Cray supercomputer. If I were Barack Obama, maybe I could put my hands on one. :) Is there a special name for the kind of dictionary-based attack (with mild brute force flavor) you just suggested? |

What are the odds of brute-forcing an archive with 256-bit encryption? Thanks for the advice! Unfortunately scanning the HDD is out of question... I migrated to another machine and the HDD of old one has been formatted and is used by someone else, so probably everything was overwritten a few times... Beyond recovery I guess. On the bright side I have an idea of what was part of the password (no accurate recollection, though), but I think I could shrink the number of unknown characters to half... So there seems to be a dim glow at the end of the tunnel... :) |

What are the odds of brute-forcing an archive with 256-bit encryption? Well then I have no choice than move to another planet outside the solar system, watch our system getting devoured and wait... Any idea how much popcorn I could eat in the meantime? Just to have enough put away... :D |
