pw-play

The command line tool "pw-play" is a powerful utility used for password cracking and testing security. It is primarily designed for performing offline password attacks.

With pw-play, users can perform brute-force attacks, dictionary attacks, and hybrid attacks to crack passwords. It supports various algorithms like MD5, SHA1, SHA256, and many more. Additionally, it can also crack password-protected ZIP files, PDFs, and Microsoft Office documents.

The tool has options to specify password length, character sets, and rules to optimize the cracking process. It also supports GPU acceleration, making it faster and more efficient during password cracking.

Pw-play supports multi-threading, which utilizes all available CPU cores, further enhancing its performance. The results of the password cracking attempts are displayed in real-time, providing detailed statistics like time taken, passwords attempted, and cracked passwords.

While pw-play can be used for legitimate cybersecurity purposes like testing the strength of passwords and identifying weak points in security systems, it should be used responsibly and with proper authorization to avoid any illegal or unethical practices.
