You can brute force encryption however modern encryption methods makes it so it'd take longer than the heat death of the universe. The whole reason why DES isn't used and why it's recommended to set your RSA key length to 2048 bits is because some kid with a couple of GPUs can run hashcat and brute force your key. But hey it's still a viable attack vector because companies keep won't learn.
