It is definitely supported by hashcat. Some benchmarks from @epixoip are here: https://gist.github.com/epixoip/973da7352f4cc005746c627527e4d073

PCI-E lanes are good for gaming, but hashcat does not care. x1 would even be sufficient for hashcat. If you intend to use the system for multiple password-auditing purposes, a minimum of x4 might ...

Fair question - though it's also the case that existing rules will now produce results that wouldn't have worked before. In other words, if you run your existing rules and lists against your unfoun...

No. Do the math (seriously, as in do the actual calculation of multiplying hashes per second by the number of hashes, using something like Wolfram Alpha) so that you understand why it's literally impo...

    Thread: Exploiting the human factor
Post: RE: Exploiting the human factor

That's exactly what hashcat does when using attack mode 3 (brute force, -a 3), and a mask is not specified. It defaults to this mask: -1 ?l?d?u -2 ?l?d -3 ?l?d*!$@_ ?1?2?2?2?2?2?2?3?3?3?3?d?d?d?d

Post: RE: Exploiting the human factor

Yes, by default if you specify no other parameters other than -a 3, it will automatically increment until exhaustion. IF you want it to terminate earlier, you'd have to specify an --increment-max.

No utility necessary - honest. :D Study the default, understand how it works, and then adapt it to your needs. :D

Of course hashcat does this - even if there are different salts. Anything else would be bizarre.

I'm not an expert in all of the options you're using, but it looks sane overall to me. Is there any CPU or GPU load during that period? And can you confirm that running this commandline directly, rath...

Looking through the dictionaries won't tell you which rule was used. For future work, or if you want to run your job again, check out --debug-mode. Mode 4 may be what you're looking for. This won't...
