Hello Friends

According with your own experience (or by 3rd party as co-workers, family, etc)

Question

  • How easy is break a password in Linux?

At first glance define a password being either short or common (or known as superman, god, matrix, neo) is a catastrophic approach, but even if the password has 10 to 15 characters … how easy is?

Suppose you must run an app in Linux in a LAN, and assume some bad element arrives to the server for any reason, turns on the monitor (if any) and wants get access for the main/primary user (the one with sudo, it for example for Fedora, Ubuntu)

Thanks for your understanding

Using only N.I. :slight_smile:
Ok, the second part may be questionable, but the first list generated by AI seems to me really exhaustive.

When it comes to the second part:

Also ensure the CMOS battery soldered, unremoveable, unshortcicuitable, etc…
Otherwise BIOS password is reset via powering the CMOS down :slight_smile:

It is a fine line … be careful please.
