Code cracking is the new pot of gold
September 19, 2006

Patrick Gray finds that computer passwords take only seconds to break.

IF YOU think the password protection on your MS Word file is keeping it safe from prying eyes, chances are you're wrong. The time it takes to crack password-protected Microsoft Office files has tumbled from a 25-day average to a matter of seconds, thanks to a decades-old code-cracking technique that until recently was not viable.
