![]() ![]() An eight-character password that contains numbers and upper- and lower-case letters would be ((26+26+10) 8/ 9,360,000,000) *. Because his cracking application can handle 9.36 billion keys per hour, he then divided by that amount and multiplied that by EC2's standard rate of 30 cents per hour. To calculate the cost of brute forcing an eight-character password consisting only of lower-case letters, he raised 26 to the power of 8 to get the total number of possible passwords.
