| You misunderstood the article. This is an OFFLINE attack, meaning that the attacker sniffs some cipher text, then takes that cipher text and attempts to guess the password that produced it by encrypting it himself. This cannot be detected or prevented by limiting login attempts because the attacker won't login until he has discovered a valid password offline. | ||
