Consider yourself the Authentication Manager of an IT organization, and you see that things were done haphazardly in the past. Users may select from a set of 62 characters (lower/upper case alphabets and 10 numbers) for the password setup, and a password length of ten characters was specified. Consider a strong adversary that can guess 10,000 passwords in a single second. Calculate the likelihood that a password in your company will be properly guessed by an attacker in a one-year period for password lengths of 12, 14, and 16. Users may still select just 62 characters.

Cryptography

Cryptography is a term used in computer science to describe secure information and communication techniques that transform messages in difficult-to-decipher ways using mathematical concepts and a set of rule-based calculations known as algorithms.
