Answer:

Given:

Passwords are selected from 4 characters.

Character combinations are 26 lower case alphabetic characters.

Passwords attempts by adversary is at rate of 1 second.

To find:

Expected time to discover the correct password

Explanation:

Solution:

4 character combinations of 26 alphabetic characters at the rate of one attempt at every 1 second = 26 * 4 = 104

So 104 seconds is the time to discover the correct password. However this is the worst case scenario when adversary has to go through every possible combination. An average time or expected time to discover the correct password is:

13 * 4 = 52

You can also write it as 104 / 2 = 52 to discover the correct password. This is when at least half of the password attempts seem to be correct.

Alexus [3.1K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Fiber</u> Internet connection has speeds around 1 Gbps.

<h2></h2><h2>Explanation:</h2>

Fiber Internet connection is the modern way of transmitting and receiving data. As obvious from the name Optical Fiber consists of thin fibers that are extremely thin (as a human hair). They transmit data with the beam of light that make this transmission speedy as well as reliable. Therefore they provide  the download speed ranging from 25 Mbps to 1 Gbps.

Fiber Internet connection is considered best for the small businesses as it provides high bandwidth for transmission.  The best part of this connection is that it is made of glass and plastic that  do not conduct heat or electricity that means the fiber is safe from the damages as well.

masha68 [24]

Answer:

It can be repaired with disk utility / recovery algorithms

In UNIX it can be done by scanning

In FAT file scan the FAT looking for free entries

Explanation:

When the crash happens, it is not a problem for UNIX and FAT file system

It can be repaired with disk utility/recovery algorithms.

The recovery algorithm is a list of all blocks in all files and takes a compliment as new free file.

In UNIX scanning can be done at all I-nodes.

In FAT file problem cannot occur because there is no free list .If there was any problem than it would have to be done to recover it to scan the FAT looking for free entries.
