Cracking Windows User account Password
• Passwords are Stored and Transmitted in an encrypted form
called a Hash. When a User logs on to a system and enters a
password, a hash is generated and compared to a stored hash. If
the entered and the stored hashes match, the user is
authenticated (This is called the Challenge/Response).
• Passwords may be cracked Manually or with Automated tools
such as a Brute-force method or the Rainbow Table attack.
