I keep seeing these charts that say 8 characters password can be brute forced in about a second, with more security if you add number, symbol, special characters. As a bilingual, how come we don’t add other language characters? And won’t most sites block your attempt if you are Bruteforcing. Many sites already lock you out after ‘suspicious attempts’ or have 2fa. I can’t even sign into my own password manager on another device while traveling even if I wanted to.

Brute forcing of passwords isn’t carried out by trying to log in to the live system. The attackers have obtained a copy of the password database, and work on it directly.
