(Moore's law)-aware bruteforce calculator

Use this calculator to find out how much time will take a bruteforce password search for the given number of characters, taking into account the effects of the Moore's law. For the purposes of the calculation, it assumes that:

• You will dedicate all your computing time to crack the password;
• Computing power increases twice every 18 months;
• The whole search space has to be exhausted. Note that the average time is not simply half the worst-case time anymore, because of the exponentially increasing speed.

Enter search parameters:
Password length:
lowercase latin    uppercase latin    numbers    punctuation    all other ASCII
Password checking speed: (passwords per second)



Estimated cracking time:
