When only uppercase character are used, number of options for first and second characters = 26
Number of options for third character = 10
Number of ways to select three character password = 262 x 10
= 6,760
When both uppercase and lowercase character are used, number of options for first and second characters = 26x2 = 52
Number of options for third character = 10
Number of ways to select three character password = 522 x 10
= 27,040
many ways are there to select a three character password in such a way that two characters are upper case letters and the third character is a numerical if the first two characters could be either up...
discrete math. pls provide a clear explanation. thanks A password is required to be 12 to 16 characters in length. Characters can be digits (0-9), upper or lower-case letters (A-Z, a-z) or special characters. There are 10 permitted special characters. There is an additional rule that not all characters can be letters (i.e. there has to be at least one digit or one special character) ow many permitted passwords are there? Give your answer in un evaluated/un·simplified form and explain...
Assume passwords are 10 characters long, and each character is either a lower case letter, upper case letter, or digit 0, . . . , 9. (a) How many possible passwords are there? (b) How many passwords are there with at least one upper case letter, and also never repeat a character? (c) How many passwords are the same written forwards and backwards?
Question 3: a. A computer password is 6 characters long. A character can be either a digit or an uppercase English letter. A valid password must contain exactly one digit. How many valid passwords are there? (hint: you do not know the position of this one digit. It might be in the beginning or the end or the middle of the password. You may use the combination low to select the position of this digit and then assigno value to...
If the password can contain upper/lower case letters, digits, or any of eight special symbols: (Note: leave answers in exponent or simplified factorial form) How many different 8-character passwords are possible if characters cannot be repeated?
A system requires passwords be made up of upper and lower case letters, digits, and punctuation symbols. How many bits of entropy are in a 6 character password? A 12 character password? Suppose your password is three 6-character words, made up of only lowercase letters. How much entropy is in such a password???
A hacker has programmed their computer to generate, uniformly at random, an eight-character password, with each character being either one of 26 lower-case letters (a-z), one of 26 upper-case letters (A-Z) or one of 10 integers (0-9). The hacker wants to infiltrate a website that has 2 million users. Assume, for simplicity, that each user is required to use a unique password. i. What is the expected number of attempts before the hacker successfully generates a user password? ii. What...
Suppose that you open an email account and you are told that you need six-character password & the characters must be alpha-numeric ( either alphabetical or numerical). Assume that a lower case letter is different from an upper case one. a) How many passwords are possible? Give the exact answer and do not use scientific notation. Show some work. b) Suppose a computer hacker tries to guess what your password is by testing all possible passwords and it takes his...
A password consists of three letters followed by a two-digit number. (a) How many passwords are possible if there are no restrictions? 1757600 (b) How many passwords are possible if none of the letters or digits can be repeated? (c) What is the probability of guessing the password in one trial if there are no restrictions? O A. 0.0000007123 O B. 0.0000005690 O C. 0.2 O D. 0.798816568
Q 1How many four-character passwords are possible if each of the first three charactersis either A, B, C, or D, and the last character is an even digit
Imagine a system that requires three symbols for every password. Moreover, the first symbol must be English alphabetic lower case; the second symbol must be English alphabetic (either case) or numeric (0 - 9); and the third must be numeric. How many possible passwords can be specified based on these rules?
