  • Password Cracker Tutorial
    Password cracker tutorial In cryptanalysis and computer security, password cracking is the process of recovering passwords[1] from data that has been stored in or transmitted by a computer system. A common approach (brute-force attack) is to repeatedly try guesses for the password and to check them against an available cryptographic hash of the password.[2] 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 to act as a preventive measure whereby system administrators check for easily crackable passwords. On a file-by-file basis, password cracking is utilized to gain access to digital evidence to which a judge has allowed access, when a particular file's permissions are restricted. Time needed for password searches The time to crack a password is related to bit strength (see password strength), which is a measure of the password's entropy, and the details of how the password is stored. Most methods of password cracking require the computer to produce many candidate passwords, each of which is checked. One example is brute-force cracking, in which a computer tries every possible key or password until it succeeds. With multiple processors, this time can be optimized through searching from the last possible group of symbols and the beginning at the same time, with other processors being placed to search through a designated selection of possible passwords.[3] More common methods of password cracking, such as dictionary attacks, pattern checking, word list substitution, etc.

Pate Bhojaraj H. Barhate Department of Computer Science, Department of Computer Science Nanasaheb Y.N.Chavan Arts,Science & Commerce Bhusawal Arts, Science & P.O.Nahata Commerce College, College,Chalisgaon, Dist.Jalgaon Bhusawal Abstract- The process of verifying a user's identity is typically referred to as user authentication. Information Security and Authentication is now a key issue in the world. Gradually end users of Internet improved. General uses of the Internet are searching, e-mail, social networking, e-banking, e-governance, etc. User Authentication is the process of determining whether the user should be authorized to access information or not. Alphanumeric or text passwords are mostly used mechanism for authentication. But these are susceptible to a dictionary, brute force and guessing attacks. Resolution is to use Graphical Password, is more secure, reliable technique for authentication. Graphical passwords allow users to remember pictures/images instead of text which helps them to remember the passwords easily. But these are also vulnerable to the dictionary, brute force and guessing attacks. In this paper, Text-based password and graphical password techniques for Authentication are just discussed, and possible attacks on them are summarized. KEYWORDS: Phishing, bots, OCR, PIN uses who you are? Single, measurable characteristic of an Introduction: individual (e.g., Iris, fingerprint) [15,5]. Passwords are the way used most frequently for Among the three techniques, the knowledge-based technique authenticating computer users, but this method has often is widely used for authentication because it is well known to shown insufficient in preventing unauthorized access to all areas of users and easy to implement.

  • How to Efficiently & Safely Work from Home in the Face of COVID-19
    How to Efficiently & Safely Work from Home in the Face of COVID-19 Paul J. Unger, Esq. [email protected] It is Saturday, January 11, 2019. I suddenly wake up to my iPhone alarm at 4 am, after weathering my first full week back to work following New Years. For several seconds I have no idea where I am. The surroundings do not feel familiar. I usually don’t wake up until at least 6 am, and I am often disoriented when I awaken in various cities. I now recall. I am in St. John’s, Newfoundland, and I need to catch an early flight back to Columbus! I quickly get my head together, jump in the shower, pack the last of my clothes and toiletries, put my laptop and iPad in my backpack, and rush to my Uber app only to remember that Newfoundland does not yet have Uber. I called the front desk and asked them to call for a Taxi. As I wait outside, it is a bitter 20 degrees, icy, with 6 inches of snow on the ground. I jump in the taxi and head to the airport. I can’t remember exactly where I was that day when I heard that China reported the first coronavirus death, but I was in one of the airports. I remember thinking that this sounds like another outbreak of SARS. Admittedly, I wasn’t terribly concerned, but I recall washing my hands extra-long throughout the long day of travel, and paid special attention to not touching by eyes, nose or mouth, a practice that I have grown accustomed to traveling 150-250 days a year.
