Description: Password analysis and cracking kit
PACK was developed in order to aid in a password cracking
competition "Crack Me If You Can" that occurred during
Defcon 2010. The goal of this toolkit is to aid in
preparation for the "better than bruteforce" password
attacks by analyzing common ways that people create
passwords. After the analysis stage, the statistical
database can be used to generate attack masks for tools
such as oclHashcat.
.
NOTE: This tool itself can not crack passwords, but helps
other tools crack more passwords faster.
