number of attemps with a mask for a NTLM hash type - joe123 - 08-06-2022
Hello forum
would like to find out how many passwords Hashcat has to test for following password with the following mask:
- the password does consist in; a-zA-Z0-9 and (the following 3 chars) - _ & (are that in total 65 chars ?)
- max password length: 10 chars
Content of mask.file: ?l?u?d-_&,?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1
Command: hashcat -m1000 -a3 -O -w3 --increment hash.txt mask.file
(Thank's to user Snoopy who helped me to craft this mask
Could somebody please explain me how to calculate the number of required attemps?
Thank you very much!
Joe

With 65 chars and up to 10 char long password, there will be 65^10 (or 1,34627433E+18) options. So.... a lot!!!

Not perfect, but a good tool to ballpark generic keyspaces.
https://www.grc.com/haystack.htm
as b8vr stated for you it is:
[a-z] = 26
+
[A-Z] = 26
+
[0-9] = 10
+
- _ & = 3
-----------------------
26+26+10+3 = 65
charset = 65
pw length = 10
-----------------------
keyspace = 65^10
65^10 = 1,346,274,334,462,890,625 = 1.346274334×10¹⁸

And to put it into perspective, using a NVIDIA RTX 3080 TI card, and assuming it can maintain a steady 117.4 GH/s speed means:
1,346,274,334,462,890,625 / 117,400,000,000 = 133 days of full time 24 hours per day cracking to go through them all.

Thank's a lot to each of you for your feedback! Unfortunately I can't afford to setup an adequate lab for such a task
