Nvidia RTX 5090 outperforms Nvidia H200 and AMD MI300X in password cracking across MD5, NTLM, bcrypt, SHA-256, and SHA-512 using Hashcat. Consumer GPUs prove more cost-efficient than costly AI accelerators. #PasswordCracking #Nvidia #USA
Is a $30,000 GPU Good at Password Cracking?
Specops compared Nvidia H200, AMD MI300X and RTX 5090 GPUs using Hashcat across MD5, NTLM, bcrypt, SHA‑256 and SHA‑512 to measure password‑cracking performance. The RTX 5090 outperformed both AI accelerators, showing consumer GPUs can be more cost‑effective for cracking and underscoring the need for long passphrases, breach detection, and MFA. #RTX5090 #ActiveDirectory

TIL if you generate and store all even _faintly_ possible IPv4 IPs - 0.0.0.0 through 255.255.255.255 - it takes about 56GB.

This is a #haveibeenpwned subtoot. 😜

Redacted screenshot of cracking results against public HIBP hashes, in hash:plain potfile format. Hashes are redacted. Plaintexts show a pattern of a very common password, a space, the string 'http', and then the beginning of an IP address. The right-hand side of the image is truncated, so that only the beginnings of the IPs are shown.
