Due to the slow cracking speed of general password cracking tools and the limited support for password cracking protocols, some passwords cannot be cracked by brute force within a year. To run them using a dictionary, plaintext passwords must be stored in the dictionary. Moreover, if the password diction
Hashcat is known as the world's fastest password cracking tool. Today, this article will extract several commonly used parameters and analyze how to use Hashcat to crack passwords, combined with password cracking commands.
At first, I wanted to accelerate hashcat in Kali Linux, but the graphics card in the virtual machine is algorithm generated and cannot be used for acceleration. When I saw that an N-card could directly connect to a virtual machine, I searched around with hope, but I couldn't find a suitable GPU direct tu
In practice, sometimes we encounter such problems, such as when the password is in the abcdabcd pattern, but our dictionary does not have abcdabcd. If we generate it, it will take up a huge amount of space. Is there a way to generate abcdabcd through abcd? In hashcat, of course, it can be implemented. In
Hashcat is a password explosion tool and one of the essential tools for information security. This article is collected and summarized for future reference, and may also be helpful to netizens who read this article.
Hashcat has four basic decryption methods:
1. Dictionary decryption
2. Combination string decryption
3. Violent Decryption (Abandoned) - Mask Attack
4. Mixed decryption
There are also rule-based decryption methods and case switching, but they can be classified as rule-based decryption
One major function of hash function is to securely store passwords, not directly storing passwords (i.e. not storing plaintext passwords), but storing the hash value of passwords
I know that there is only one dot in the password type symbol How to set it up What are the types of numbers added? How to not set it separately? By default, all symbols will be run once, which wastes computing power.
