Open dveeden opened 10 years ago

dveeden commented 10 years ago

On page 105 (section "Modern attacks on weak password systems") there is this TODO entry: TODO: more concrete performance numbers about GPUs

The dutch security company Fox IT have blogged about this recently: http://blog.fox-it.com/2014/03/07/building-bowser-a-password-cracking-story/

Are you involved with these guys, or did you just happen to read their blog post?
