In the "DPAPI Secrets. Security analysis and data recovery in DPAPI" page over on http://www.passcape.com/index.php?sectio...ails&id=28
there is a section near the end titled:
"Recovering user password without loading hashes from SAM/NTDS.DIT"
whose last paragraph reads:
[. . .] the recovery of user's password from the Master Key is not of any practical benefit. For example, in Windows 7, the password validation goes at the speed of about 10 p/s. Theoretically, the speed can be increased by a few orders of magnitude by optimizing the encryption algorithms and engaging GPU in the validation. [. . .]
Has this ever been on the goals list for oclHashcat?
