Question about my home security vs Hashcat
#6
if you tapped out "randomly," then it's not random. you are not capable of doing random. you may not be able to readily identify it, but your brain picked a pattern. that pattern may be guessed by a keywalk generator.

markov attacks allow us to reduce a keyspace by trying only the most probable characters in each position, in order from most probable to least probable. think of it as an intelligent brute force. the lower the threshold you provide, the smaller the keyspace is. this model is really good at cracking human-generated passwords in a short amount of time.
