Dictionary attack is a type of password attack that involves creating encrypted versions of words found in a dictionary and comparing them against the passwords in a stolen password file.

Answer: H
 Salt is a technique used to make passwords more secure by adding a random string of characters to the password before it is encrypted. This makes it more difficult for attackers to use precomputed rainbow tables to crack passwords.

Note: The other options are also security concepts or techniques, but they are not directly related to the specific type of attack described in the question.
