Hacking is a big term, but not for the hackers. Hacking is done is many ways and in many devices. In fact my friends mostly ask me a question; Do you know how to hack any email id? I usually nod my head saying NO. :D

    They are not only 20 actually. Plenty of them are still missing. You can search dictionary file for passwords and apply brute force algorithm on that. :)

    In order to protect yourself being cracked, you can always choose your passwords that must include a digit, special characters and alphabets in lower and upper cases.
