Password Cracking

These are a rough guide for how long it takes to do a PURE brute force using all ASCII characters, using a GPU instance that I use for cracking.

The speeds will exponentially increase when I add more instances. This is with 2 instances. my buddy is using 16. so I will be looking to increase mine, so all these timeswill half and maybe evenspeed up 4x

Cracking MSCACH / LSA

Formatting

You might have to format the hashes you get, the below is an example of a tools dumpoing the hashes but they are not the right format for hashcat by default.

DOMAIN.lan/user123:$DCC2$10240#user12345#ea373dca60f838378e952b9cd337c0d3
DOMAIN.lan/testuser:$DCC2$10240#testuser#0b8378e952b978df5378e952b955eb3d2

Run the below to format it to hashcat format.

cut -d ":" -f 2 hashes.txt

Using hashcat:

 .\hashcat.exe -m 2100 .\tocrack\hashes.txt .\rockyou.txt
