Dictionary attack is a very effective attack to crack the code and is often used by hackers to break into passwords, such as email accounts, social networking accounts, website administrator pages, and others. Dictionary attack is considered effective because it utilizes human psychology, namely the habit that account users will use easy-to-remember words as passwords for a particular account. In addition, dictionary attacks have also been developed for variations as well as effectiveness, so that until now this technique is still often used to break user passwords for an account. In the context of cryptanalysis and computer security, dictionary attack is a technique against ciphers or against authentication mechanisms by determining the decryption key by looking for possible combinations of words contained in a dictionary.
