| '''Brute-force attack''' is a relatively simple method of determining the key of an encrypted message. A Brute-Force attack is a similar to a ], and shares many of the characteristics. | |||
| {{R from other hyphenation}} | |||
| Usually, a series of ] are generated via an ] or from a predetermined list (usually referred to as a ]). Keys are applied to the message to produce ]. Each passage of ] must be ] to determine if it is the desired message. | |||
| {{R with history}} | |||
| This is an extremely time-consuming task. Cracking a message with a relatively miniscule 6-digit ] key has <math>62^6</math> possible solutions, each of which must be run through a verfication process. | |||
| The benefit of a Brute-Force attack is that, eventually, the correct key will be produced. | |||
| Specifics of Brute-force methods can be found at ]. | |||

Redirect to:
- From an alternative hyphenation: This is a redirect from a title with an alternative hyphenation of the target name. Pages that link to this redirect may be updated to link directly to the target page if that results in an improvement of the text. Do not "fix" such links if they are not broken. Also, these links should not be replaced with piped links.
- With history: This is a redirect from a page containing substantive page history. This page is kept as a redirect to preserve its former content and attributions. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated), nor delete this page.
- This template should not be used for redirects having some edit history but no meaningful content in their previous versions, nor for redirects created as a result of a page merge (use {{R from merge}} instead), nor for redirects from a title that forms a historic part of Misplaced Pages (use {{R with old history}} instead).
