They don't take days to run. The other week I cracked around 16,000 LM hashes with EDPR in about 6 hours. Incremental crackers have improved substantially over the past few years primarily due to the introduction of GPU programming (in some cases algorithms port easily, in other cases they need some work first to be optimal on a GPU), easier distributed programming and rainbow tables. There's some interesting projects that use GPU technology to optimise the rainbow table reduction function (see http://www.cryptohaze.com/ for an example). As GPU technology improves and as hardware becomes cheaper and more powerful these technologies bring capabilities previously limited to three-lettered agencies into the commercial and home space. |
