@legbo_ Do according to your plans.

@_yeminiz You can still be awake, and still not make it.

@Airdrop_Ag @nftpriest_1 Cool, if you can Dm instead

While tools like Hashcat and John the Ripper can expose vulnerabilities, implementing robust defenses ensures your systems remain secure. #cybersecurity #ethicalhacking #offensivesrcurity #defensivesecurity.

Account Lockouts: After several failed attempts. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Adds extra security. Monitoring: Keeping an eye on failed login attempts and unusual activity. Final Thought: Understanding both offensive and defensive techniques is crucial in cybersecurity.

Types of Attacks: Dictionary Attacks: Using wordlists (e.g., rockyou.txt). Credential Stuffing: Using leaked username-password combinations. Hybrid Attacks: Combining dictionary words with mutations. Defensive Measures: Strong Passwords: Minimum 12+ characters with complexity

password policies and secure, salted hashing methods. 3. Brute Force Attacks & Their Defenses What is a Brute Force Attack? An approach that systematically attempts every possible combination until the correct one is found.

Using John the Ripper: john --format=raw-md5 --wordlist=rockyou.txt hash.txt John the Ripper applies dictionary attacks first, then moves to brute force if needed. Key Insight: Weak passwords are easily compromised with these tools. This underlines the need for strong

applications. 2. Cracking MD5 Hashes with Hashcat & John the Ripper . Using Hashcat: hashcat -m 0 -a 0 hash.txt rockyou.txt -m 0: Specifies MD5. -a 0: Indicates a dictionary attack with the rockyou.txt wordlist. @RedHatPentester @akintunero @BowTiedCyber

Limitations: Speed makes it vulnerable to brute force. Lacks salting by default, leading to predictable hashes. Susceptible to collision attacks. Note : Although MD5 might still be found in older systems, secure alternatives (like SHA-256 or bcrypt) should be used in modern
