Die neuesten Passwort-Cracking-Tools

Das Knacken von Passwörtern und die dazugehörigen Passwort-Cracker-Tools sind oft der Bereich der Informationssicherheit und des Hackings, über den sich die Leute am meisten aufregen, oh wow, ich kann E-Mail-Passwörter hacken? Wir bekommen so ziemlich jeden Tag E-Mails, in denen wir gefragt werden, wie man das Facebook-Passwort von jemandem knackt oder die Zugangsdaten einer Website abruft usw.

Was ist Passwort-Cracking?

Wie allgemein definiert:
In cryptanalysis and computer security, password cracking is the process of recovering passwords from data that have been stored in or transmitted by a computer system. A common approach (brute-force attack) is to try guesses repeatedly for the password and check them against an available cryptographic hash of the password.The purpose of password cracking might be to help a user recover a forgotten password (installing an entirely new password is less of a security risk, but it involves System Administration privileges), to gain unauthorized access to a system, or as a preventive measure by system administrators to check for easily crackable passwords. On a file-by-file basis, password cracking is utilized to gain access to digital evidence for which a judge has allowed access but the particular file's access is restricted.
