Click on each of the numbered digits to create a four-digit code, and then click the select button. Then, when you're ready, click the "crack" button to see the computer crack your code. *** There is definitely a reason behind most websites' requirement of a password that is at least six digits in length and that includes four different types of characters - capital and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Many devices have users set a four-digit numerical PIN. Four digits, each a number 0-9, provide a total of 10^4 possible PINs, or 10,000 unique possibilities. That may sound like a lot, but I was able to code this password cracker - in less than ten minutes, as a matter of fact - that scrolls through every single possibility in less than a second. They're that easy to crack. However, if you have a password of just 10 characters that consists of numbers 0-9, capital letters A-Z, and lowercase letters a-z, it has a total of 62^10 possibilities. That's 839,299,365,868,300,000 - eight hundred thirty-nine quadrillion, two hundred ninety-nine trillion, three hundred sixty-five billion, eight hundred sixty-eight million, three hundred thousand - different possibile password combinations, which would take even the most powerful computer YEARS to crack! *** One-sentence summary: Four-digit PINs can be cracked in less than a second with the help of a computer.
