Does your boss want a practical demonstration of a technology that he wants implemented somewhere? Instead of setting up a machine to run ad infinitum, you could provide a better demonstration by running through the simple mathematical principles behind encryption techniques, and the amount of processing power it takes to crack these. This may make more of an impact than a practical demonstration. - Jamie -----Original Message----- From: donald.mccoy () gmail com [mailto:donald.mccoy () gmail com] Sent: 06 July 2006 15:21 To: pen-test () securityfocus com Subject: Blowfish cracker I got tasked with trying to crack a couple of blowfish encrypted passwords and I now need a cracker. I know that this is pretty impossible but my boss wants a demonstration on how long it would take to crack this. Could someone suggest a good cracker? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ This List Sponsored by: Cenzic Concerned about Web Application Security?
