Some hash types need specific tools and techniques to extract or otherwise prepare for use with hashcat. Some of these details or hints are more complex or more dynamic than what's available in –hash-info. This page is a place to keep them.
Editing note: For simplicity and future-proofing, start each section title with the mode ID, and sort each section by hash ID.
Conversion: Some formats - such as those inside larger containers like archive files, documents, full disk encryption, etc. - have to be extracted / modified / converted before hashcat can attack them. Rather than reinventing the wheel, hashcat often recommends John the Ripper's conversion scripts (the '-2john' files in the JtR distribution). If your conversion script is not listed here, try there.
