Password Cracking for noobs: All your hashes are belong to us

As the great philosopher ludacris said, “if you get hashes, you crack them. it’s a rule.” Welcome to a world where getting a hash should mean you also just owned that account. This is boring if it’s your grandmother’s computer, but way more interesting when it’s a bank. This talk will discuss the basic concepts behind password hashes, how they can be obtained, and what to do with them once you have them. Special attention will be given to demos related to effective hash cracking techniques and introduction to toolsets for making the process as efficient and effective as possible.

We’ve all seen the steady stream of revelations about the NSA’s unconstitutional, illegal mass surveillance. seems like there’s a new transgression revealed every week! I’m getting outrage fatigue. So i decided to fight back… by looking for practical, realistic, everyday actions i can take to protect my privacy and civil liberties on the internet, and sharing them with my friends.

Join me in using encryption and privacy technology to resist eavesdropping and tracking, and to start to opt out of the bulk data collection that the NSA has unilaterally decided to secretly impose upon the world. Let’s take back the internet, one encrypted bit at a time.
