Fedora 12 (Constantine) Pyrit

Pyrit implementation allows to create massive databases, pre-computing part of the WPA/WPA2-PSK authentication phase in a space-time-tradeoff. It can generate those same hash based on the network name and passphrases.

NVIDIA GPU can actually speed up the attack on the PSK keys in modern WPA/WPA2 networks.

Technology NVIDIA CUDA ™ - is the only development environment for C, which allows programmers and developers to write software to solve complex computational problems in less time thanks to the multi-core processing power of GPUs. The world has installed millions of GPU with support for CUDA, and thousands of programmers have free use CUDA tools to accelerate applications - from video and audio encoding to oil and gas exploration, simulation products, the withdrawal of medical imaging and research.

Check either you card is supported CUDA technology.

Pyrit Benchmark



I'm still working on it for now. As I need to compile CUDA first then work on compilation of pyrit.

I saw a blog where he do WPA crack with pipeing john to the aicrack and it take 7:39:XX. There is very long time. But not so long :P

At another blog, they crack with pyrit which use CUDA to crack and immediately get the password in 180s. Huge different there.

Will update this post once I solve the compilation issue.

.. "-lcuda missing" ..

Gonna check my CUDA path in config later on.

Wish me luck.

Update - 10-Dec



Damnt it. 2 times faster only. Now, I have doubt either to sell or not my desktop. Can reserve for cracking purpose. isk3
