I would like to know if brute forcing a website is legal. I am trying to hack a websites login and need to know before I begin a attack and for anyone wondering I'm using Kali Linux Hydra.

you are trying to get acces to an account that doesn't belong to you, so yes it is illegal

What is the penalty of being caught?
