Activity Summary: According to the LARES 2019 Penetration Testing Findings report, Brute Forcing Accounts With Weak and Guessable Passwords was the most frequently encountered issue. In this hands-on session, we will look at password-based authentication systems and look at the tools used to attack password-based systems and recover passwords from hashes. Finally, we will examine useful password usage statistics using a notional dataset from a Windows domain controller.
