Can a strong password be hacked?

While a strong password can be technically hacked, it would take an imperceivable


amount of time to do so. A recent report found that a 12-character password made
only of numbers would take just 25 seconds to hack. Compare that to a 12-character
password made up of numbers, uppercase and lowercase letters, and symbols, and the
amount of time it would take to hack increases to 34,000 years. So a strong
password won’t be hackable in your lifetime. Read more in the infographic.
