CTOnews.com, April 26 (Xinhua) Kevin Mitnick (Kevin Mitnick) recently used 24 RTX 4090 graphics cards and 6 RTX 2080 graphics cards to build a supercomputer to crack the password, which will be called "badass password cracker".

CTOnews.com quoted media reports with the following information about Mitnick: he was once a well-known hacker in the industry and was jailed for five years in the 1990s, and later the prodigal son focused on security testing.

"We often encounter such problems when performing Red Team attacks," says Mitnick. "our team now has a new large GPU group that can crack passwords faster."

The so-called Red Team is a simulated network attack to detect whether a company has vulnerabilities. "more than 6.2 trillion hashes per second are verified on NTLM, the challenge / response-based authentication protocol," he said in a subsequent tweet. "it may be affected by workload and other factors, but this is the average."
