Wpa Cracking Gpu Benchmark

If you are planning to create a cracking rig for research purposes check out GPU hashcat benchmark table below.

We tested hashcat against a lot of GPUs. We found that some old GPU (and cheap) give awesome results, at the cost of more power hungry GPU.

In particular, we recommend buying AMD 7950 or R9 280 or better. We found those model very cheap.To lower the power consumption we modified the bios to lower the GPU core speed. After some experience with mining, we found that lowering the core speed by 20% didn't have a big impact on hashrate and also lowered the wattage a lot ( we got 175w per card with 7950 instead 250w).

If you are going to build a linux machine and use AMD card, be worry about driver configuration!. Nvidia card are easy to configure in Linux.If you are going the windows path, don't worry about AMD.Our setup uses R9 280x with four gpu using pci risers (1x to 16x), very similar to zcash mining rig configs. In particular, we used Linux and we were able to configure the GPU, but it took us several days to make it work (we had to patch amd driver to work with kernel 4).

However, if you are willing to invest we recommend buying the Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti which provides 576000 hash/s!

Benchmark Gpu Test. WPA algorithm is very secure, and to get the password usually we have only one way – to brute force it, which could take huge time if.

Update 2019/9/12: added hashcat benchmarks fro Vega 56 and Vega 64 gpus

Below we show you the table to compare hash rate. We choose two algorithms MD4 and WPA2 to make the table small.

Today We will learn about Cracking the Hashes using CPU and GPU.

CPU: Central Processing Unit

GPU: Graphical Processing Unit

We will cover:

1. What is a Hash ?
2. What is the need of a Hash ?
3. Why Hash over Encryption or Encoding ?
4. Hardware configuration
5. Tools required
6. Hash cracking [CPU]
7. Hash cracking [GPU]
8. Hash cracking using Search engine
9. Why such a difference ?

What is a Hash ?

A. A Cryptographic function that converts a data or file of arbitrary length or size to a fixed length, which is considered practically impossible to invert. see Wikipedia

What is the need of a Hash ?

A. A major use of Hash is in the security field. To provide security or privacy to the user who is using any service of a company.

For example: You are using Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, eBay, Amazon or Online payment portals like Paypal. Where you use the service by providing your credentials(username/password)

There are basically 2 reasons:

1. Making it difficult for hackers to recover/retrieve Password, Online service(Gmail,eBay etc) or even Wi-Fi.
2. Checking for the file verification. see SHA1 here

Even If company’s security is breached (Hacked), then also the user’s credentials are safe(only if you use strong password)

Why Hash over Encryption and Encoding ?

A. Imagine a scenario, which perhaps happen to almost every Big banner, take it Google, Facebook, Yahoo! etc.

A website is compromised and User’s data(credentials) is compromised.

What is the thing that will make you worry when you come to know that, if you are a registered user on that site ? Yes! your Password (might be master password, for all your accounts).

Now, It is in service provider’s hand to provide security to their consumers. Hence, Hashing is the solution.

How? well, you

might be familiar with these terms:

• Encoding/Decoding
• Encrypt/Decrypt
• and now, Hashing

Not going into the details, I will tell you a basic and most important feature of Hash which makes Hash much different and important over Encoding and Decoding. and that is :

Encoded text/file can be Decoded, Encrypted text/file can be Decrypted, But hashed text/file can never be De-hashed.

Yes, Hash unlike Encryption/Encoding, is a One way process i.e when a text/file go through the Cryptographic hash function, it is converted into a fixed character length.

Example: md5 type hash has character length of 32, where

SHA1 has character length of 40.If we hash a string, say “test123”, md5 and SHA1 hash for “test123” will be

md5(“test123”) : CC03E747A6AFBBCBF8BE7668ACFEBEE5

SHA1(“test123”) : 7288EDD0FC3FFCBE93A0CF06E3568E28521687BC

Length differs from md2, md4 to SHA256, SHA512 and so on.Hashing your Wi-Fi password is also secured using hash function named PBKDF2(Password Based KeyDerivation Function)

• Sniffing
• Hash calculating
• Hash recovery(this tutorial)
• ARP spoofing
• WiFi hacking, using a hardware called AirPcap
• and so on.

We will take MD5(Message Digest 5) cracking as an example to keep it simple and easy to understand. Install Cain & abel, then

Follow the instruction along, step-by-step:

1. Open Cain & abel
2. Press Alt+C to open Hash calculator
3. Type in “test123” and hit [ENTER], here “test123” is our test string
4. You should see something similar,Here we got the MD5, and other Hash for string “test123” i.eCC03E747A6AFBBCBF8BE7668ACFEBEE5. select and copy the MD5 hash.
   NOTE: Hashing is Case sensitive, Hash for “Test123” will be absolutely different.
5. Click on Cracker tab, then select MD5 Hashes column in the left.then right click and select Add to list.
6. paste the copied MD5 hash and hit [ENTER]
7. Now, Hash is added to list. Right click on hash and select Brute-Force attack
8. Set max length to 7 and click Start, and you should see thisHere I have set the Max length of the password to be 7 to just test the output of the tool, and cracking speed of the CPU.
   See the Password/Second CPU is testing : 6.3M (approx) and the remaining time i.e total time which will take CPU to recover the original string is 3.5 hours.

It is too lame to wait for 3.5 hours for a small string test123 of length of 7 characters with no special characters. isn’t it ? well, here comes the GPU cracking to put some speed in the process!

Hash cracking [GPU]

igHashGPU is a password recovery tool specialized for ATI (RV) and nVidia (Cuda) based cards. It recovers password of hashes which are used over internet(weak), example md4/md5/SHA1.

Lets get started,

We have the MD5 string for test123 i.e CC03E747A6AFBBCBF8BE7668ACFEBEE5

Follow the instructions along, step-by-step:

1. Download and extract igHashGPU. Go to folder
2. Right click and edit the file “example.cmd“. It is the example file for testing GPU speed of recovering MD5 password.
3. Paste the MD5 code in the file after h:
   and it should look like this :
   ighashgpu.exe /h:CC03E747A6AFBBCBF8BE7668ACFEBEE5 /t:md5 /c:sd /min:4 /max:7
4. Close file. Click save and yes.
5. Select “Example.cmd” and hit [ENTER].
6. A command prompt window will open,like thisSee the CURSPD(Current speed), ~50 Million. Nice! but not good, isn’t it ? see the battery symbol in lower right corner. Laptop is running on battery.
7. See what happens when I plug in the charger, notice the clock and speed.WHOA! See the difference! from 50M to 195M passwords/second, isn’t it great ? from 6.3M pass/sec to 195M pass/sec. That’s a big Jump.

What you think how long it would have taken to recover the password ?

Just 5 minutes and 53 seconds. See how much time we saved by using GPU. From 3+ hrs to just 5 minutes. isn’t it amazing ?

also see the average speed also, 62,847 Million passwords/second.

CPU: ~3 hrs with 6M pass/sec
GPU: ~6 min with 195M pass/sec

You might ask , Hey! can we crack this even faster ? well, the answer is Yes you can(not always though).

How ?

Hash cracking using Search engine [Google]

We had MD5 string copied, right? what you need to do is very simple.

Just paste and search the MD5 string i.e CC03E747A6AFBBCBF8BE7668ACFEBEE5 on Google. and you’re done!

Notice the text string “test123” and the Hash. So simple to recover the string from MD5, no ?

Now see the time above, it took us to recover the original string. Just 0.31 seconds. not even a second. Wow! that’s great.

You might be thinking why such a difference ? here’s the answer

Why such a difference ?

Difference in the speed is due to the architecture of the 3.

• CPU: Uses 4 cores(Shared with system processes) at maximum, 8-cores in some cases.
• GPU: Used 96 cores (In this case).

All the 96 cores(Parallel processing units) were 100% dedicated for the password recovery process unlike CPU, which was simultaneously handling the complete OS including background processes, GUI(mapping of pixels on screen),and many other processes.

Even if the CPU stop handling those, then also it won’t match GPU’s performance. difference because of the #of cores i.e 96 vs. 4 or 8

Latest GPU’s that I have seen comes with more than 400 cores. It can take you more than a billion passwords/second to recover the MD5 hashed string.

• Google don’t crack the hash.

Yes!, Google doesn’t crack/recover the string.It sends request for the specific Text input i.e the hash in our case, to all the servers, takes the response back and displays the result according to the page rank of the site.

There are plenty of online crackers, which can be used to crack a variety of hashes. They search their Database for the hash you have entered.

If the string of hash is already recovered by them, they will give it to you, else you have to pay to avail the service.

An email is sent if the string has been recovered.

So, what google does is sending request to all these servers and displaying you the result. Result of the hash already cracked.

It certainly becomes the Top priority for hash cracking.Search google first, if you didn’t find the password, go for GPU cracking.
Still didn’t succeed ? Try CloudCraker, crackStation, HashKiller

You can google “Online hash cracker” for more results.

Note: Cracking speed varies depending on factors like:

• GPU configuration, ATI graphics cards are the best for this task.
• Hash type, for SHA1 it will be even lesser and for WPA hash cracking it goes down to 4000 Pass/sec on my graphic card. see this list. My card’s performance is near to GeForce 8800 GTS (CUDA)
