How Do Hackers Exploit Weak Encryption?

Introduction

Even in 2025, 40% of Indian websites and apps still use MD5, SHA-1, or TLS 1.0 — all broken for over a decade. Criminals crack passwords in seconds, downgrade encryption, and steal data in transit. Our 8,000+ placed students at Ethical Hacking Training Institute & Webasha Technologies legally crack MD5 hashes, WPA2 handshakes, and downgrade TLS every day in our dedicated encryption lab, then enforce AES-256, TLS 1.3, and Argon2 for banks, payment gateways, and government clients while earning ₹20 to 75 LPA packages.

Top 10 Weak Encryption Attacks Used in 2025

• MD5 / SHA-1 rainbow table & brute-force cracking
• WPA2 handshake capture + dictionary attack
• WEP encryption cracking in under 5 minutes
• SSL stripping (HTTP downgrade attack)
• Forcing TLS 1.0/1.1 via handshake manipulation
• RC4 stream cipher Sweet32 attack
• DES / 3DES brute-force (56-bit key)
• Deprecated RSA key sizes (1024-bit)
• Padding oracle attacks (POODLE, Lucky13)
• Weak password hashing (PBKDF2 low iterations)
