Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - HiddenEyE - Jul 16, 2020 Please has anyone coded a cracker and notice that it takes time to be able to crack more than 8 password length. Please share your experience and possible solution. Have tried a lot of optimization to they best of my knowledge.but I think in c/c++ everything is possible.I need help. Is for educational purposes.thanks RE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - saltycracker - Jul 16, 2020 You could post your code and at bit of an explanation to what it does. RE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - Vibe - Jul 16, 2020 Could you maybe need more processing power to speed it up? RE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - m8than - Jul 16, 2020 Because every time you add a character the total amount of passwords to guess exponentially increases. Think about it, you are adding at least like 35 characters on top of every single previous password checked. RE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - Pawnhub - Jul 16, 2020 Let's say there's 33 possible character combinations you're generating for each character you'd have 1^33 possible combinations. if the passwords has a length of 8 you are generating 8^33 possible combinations. if 9 it'd be 9^33'd. 9 characters all possible combinations would equal: 30,903,154,382,632,612,361,920,641,803,529 VS lets say a password with 4 characters: 73,786,976,294,838,206,464 and if the cracker is webbased, it's probably your implementation of requesting to the site and lack of multithreading or parallel processing. RE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - Xora - Jul 17, 2020 I just wrote a test prog. It takes me 35 seconds to generate 1 billion 8 character passwords (28.5 million passwords per second) with 40 lines of code. It has no logic though, it just creates random passwords. What's a good time for this type of thing? Here's the code, BTW. Pretty shit but maybe you can improve it and use it somehow. Code #define var unsigned intRE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - HiddenEyE - Jul 17, 2020 (Jul 17, 2020 01:04 AM)Xora Wrote: I just wrote a test prog.

The question is that how can one reduce the huge time interval involve in cracking like 24 password length.

I need method being used by others in reducing the time interval.

It helps. RE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - Goodies - Jul 20, 2020 1 character is 128 2 characters is 128*128 3 characters is 128*128*128 etc... so it's just 128**n where n=the number of characters. Every additional character is 2 orders of magnitude greater in terms of average time taken to crack.

This question has no info. RE: Why does my cracker takes time to crack more than 8 password lenght - Laggy - Jul 28, 2020 I'd assume you either need a more powerful computer or more efficient code. Every time you add another character to a string, it becomes exponentially more difficult to crack, hence why having a password of length 10 that consists of purely random characters is the strongest you can have, it'd take far too long for any brute force to crack. |
