Update: Together with the release of Hascat 2.0 the developers has decided to make Hashcat and oclHashcat an open source project. Windows and Linux versions should work on both 32 and 64 bit.
HOW TO CRACK WPA2 WINDOWS 10 INSTALL
hccap: oclHashcat downloadsįirst we need to install some prerequisites such as AMD Catalyst 14.9 (and exactly this version, otherwise oclHashcat won’t work) and download oclHashcat. If you haven’t followed these tutorials yet I recommend you to check them out first before continuing with oclHashcat:Ĭonverting. In part 1 we generated the wordlists using Crunch and we captured the 4 way handshake. This tutorial starts where part 1 has ended.

HOW TO CRACK WPA2 WINDOWS 10 PASSWORD
Of course you can and have to question the cost effectiveness of this setup to crack a password because GPU’s don’t come cheap and require massive amounts of power when performing at top speed. Nevertheless it gives us a good understanding of what passwords are strong and what passwords aren’t when using GPU’s to brute force them. In the first part of the tutorial we created 26 different wordlists which allows us to distribute the wordlist over multiple PC’s with multiple GPU’s. The difference between older and newer graphics cards and GPU’s is even larger. The older Radeon 7670M video card in a 2012 laptop does an average of 20kh (20.000 attempts) per second where an AMD HD7970 videocard can do 142kh (142.000 attempts) per second and 8 x NVidea Titan X cards can do 2.233 kh per second. This makes brute forcing routers with easy default passwords, like the TP-LINK (default WPS PIN) or the standard UPC broadband routers (8 capital letters), a piece of cake and just a matter of time. Because of the number of cores in a GPU even an older GPU can outperform a modern CPU by using heavy parallelism. A GPU is designed to perform repetitive tasks very fast because it has many more cores than a CPU that can be used to process tasks in parallel. The benefit of using the GPU instead of the CPU for brute forcing is the huge increase in cracking speed. Instead of using CPU power to brute force the password we’re going to use the GPU’s, short for Graphics Processing Unit. In this tutorial we’re going to crack the WPA/WPA2 wireless network key using oclHashcat on Windows.
