- beej71 14y agoSince the PIN space with 4 digits is pretty small, it would be tougher to harden against brute force attacks, I'd think.
- pan69 14y agoNo. bromagosa is saying that pin numbers should be secret and is asking how did they got a dataset that specifies how many times a certain combination was selected. It has nothing to do with the 4 digit range. If you ask me, I'd say the dataset is fabricated or otherwise I'd be very worried.
