Option D is the one that really matters, right? I mean, what's the point of cracking the password if you can't see the actual unencrypted version? That's the whole goal!

I bet the hackers use some kind of machine learning algorithm to make this whole process a lot faster. Artificial intelligence is taking over, man!

Option C, for sure. Comparing the hashed wordlist against the target password is the key step here. Gotta work through that list systematically.

After that, we compare the hashed wordlist against the target hashed password to crack it.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Wouldn't hashing the wordlist first make it harder to crack the password? Just a thought.

Yes, that makes sense. Once we have the word list, we can hash or encrypt it.

Option A sounds like the way to go. Who needs a fancy password when you can just use a dictionary? Easy peasy!
