Significa "cuánto" (tiene poco uso, más en lenguaje escrito):

¡Cuán grande es el universo! (qué grande es...)
¡Cuán bella era aquella mujer! (qué bella es...)
Me preguntaba cuán rico es tu marido (... cómo es de rico...)

Se puede reemplazar por "qué" y por "cómo".

Your sentence can also be said "¡Qué duro es!" = "¡Qué difícil es!" = "¡Cuán difícil es!" -> It's so hard!
