01
Dictionary Attacks
The attacker uses a pre-computed list of words and
phrases (known as a โ€œdictionaryโ€) to guess a
password.
To protect yourself from dictionary attacks, use
strong and unique passwords for all of your accounts
and regularly update your passwords to prevent
them from being discovered.

02
The attacker uses a program to systematically try
every possible combination of characters until the
correct password is found.
To protect against brute force attacks, it is important
to use strong and unique passwords that are long and
contain a mix of letters, numbers, and special
characters.
Brute Force Attacks

03
The attacker gains access to a database and uses a
pre-computed table of hashes (the result of a one-
way mathematical function applied to a password) to
crack a password quickly.
To protect against rainbow table attacks, it is
important to use strong and unique passwords that
are long and contain a mix of letters, numbers, and
special characters.
Rainbow Table Attacks

04
The attacker uses psychological techniques to trick a
user into revealing their password. This can be done
through phone calls, emails, or in-person interactions.
To protect against social engineering attacks, it is
important to be skeptical of unsolicited requests for
personal information and to verify the identity of
anyone who asks for your password or other sensitive
information.

05
The attacker uses a program to try a single password
against a large number of different accounts.
To protect against password spraying attacks, it is
important to use strong and unique passwords for
each account, and to avoid using commonly used
passwords

06

pre-computed table of hashes (the result of a one-
way mathematical function applied to a password) to
crack a password quickly.

important to use strong and unique passwords that
are long and contain a mix of letters, numbers, and
special characters.
Keylogger Attacks

Man-in-the-middle Attack
07
The attacker intercepts communication between the
victim and a legitimate website. The attacker then
acts as a โ€œmiddlemanโ€ between the victim and the
website, allowing them to capture the victimโ€™s
password as they enter it.
To protect against Man-in-the-middle (MITM)
attacks, it is important to use secure communication
protocols, such as HTTPS, that encrypt the
communication between two parties and make it
difficult for an attacker to intercept and modify

08
The attackers use stolen usernames and passwords
to gain unauthorized access to user accounts on
various websites and online services.
To protect against these attacks, companies can
implement measures such as rate limiting, which
restricts the number of login attempts from a single
IP address, and captcha verification, which requires
users to prove that they are human before logging in.
Credential Stuffing
Swipe left
www.mojoauth.com
09
The attacker tricks users into providing sensitive
information, such as passwords, by disguising the
attacker as a trustworthy entity.
To protect against phishing password attacks, it is
important for users to be cautious when providing
their password, and to never enter it on a website
unless they are sure it is legitimate. They should also
avoid clicking on links in suspicious emails, and
instead go directly to the website in question by
typing the address into their browser.
