The password doesn't get brute forced via an API. The threat model would be more like your salted and hashed passwords got exported and now they can be brute forced. A 12 character password in the DB can be brute forced in seconds or minutes. If your password is strong it will take years or millenia. That's what haveibeenpwned.com is about. It tells you if your email is in one of these database lists out in the wild. If it is, assume your password will eventually be discovered. |
