Password-based cryptography Password-based cryptography Password-based cryptography generally refers to two distinct classes of methods: Some systems attempt to derive a cryptographic key directly from a password. However, such practice is generally ill-advised when there is a threat of brute-force attack. Techniques to mitigate such attack include passphrases and iterated (deliberately slow) password-based key derivation functions such as PBKDF2 (RFC 2898). Password-authenticated key agreement systems allow two or more parties that agree on a password (or password-related data) to derive shared keys without exposing the password or keys to network attack. Earlier generations of challenge-response authentication systems have also been used with passwords,
Most common words in Spanish Most common words in Spanish Below are two estimates of the most common words in Modern Spanish. Each estimate comes from an analysis of a different text corpus. A "text corpus" is a large collection of samples of written and/or spoken language, that has been carefully prepared for linguistic analysis. To determine which words are the most common, researchers create a database of all the words found in the corpus, and categorise them based on the context in which they are used. The first table lists the 100 most common word forms from the Corpus de Referencia del Español Actual
