👉 In cryptography, a cryptoanalytic attack is an attack on cryptographic systems that attempts to identify or analyze the underlying algorithms and structures of such systems. These attacks can be used to determine if a system is vulnerable to attacks, and to gain insights into potential vulnerabilities. An example of a cryptoanalytic attack would be a brute-force attack that tries every possible combination of characters in a password, trying to guess it out of memory. The attacker could then use this information to try different combinations again, or
