What is password attack ?

Password attack An attacker tries to crack the passwords stored in a network account database or a password-protected file.
 There are three major types of password attacks: a dictionary attack, a brute-force attack, and a hybrid attack.
 A dictionary attack uses a word list file, which is a list of potential passwords.
 A brute-force attack is when the attacker tries every possible combination of characters.
