active password cracking toolJohn the Ripper is a tool designed to help systems administrators to find weak (easy to guess or crack through brute force) passwords, and even automatically mail users warning them about it, if it is desired. Besides several crypt(3) password hash types most commonly found on various Unix flavors, supported out of the box are Kerberos AFS and Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 LM hashes, plus several more with contributed patches.
Bot attacks and DDOS have really shaken the servers to their core. What's the solution for all that we can do our own pentesting and find vulnerabilities on our systems? It's where we can use a simple command line utility zip2john on our linux distros including Kali, Ubuntu and Fedora etc. Interestingly, the same will work for us on our Macs. Recently 2024 zip2john has been updated. Just install it and use it for a variety of reasons. You can always use the comment box and let us know for further queries.
