MOSCOW - ElcomSoft Co. Ltd. releases world's fastest password cracking solutions by supporting Pico's range of high-end hardware acceleration platforms. ElcomSoft is Pico FPGA-based hardware to greatly accelerate the recovery of passwords.
At this time, two products received the update: Elcomsoft Phone Password Breaker (http://www.elcomsoft.com/eppb.html) and Elcomsoft Wireless Security Auditor (http://www.elcomsoft.com/ewsa.html), enabling users to recover Wi-Fi WPA/WPA2 passwords as well as passwords protecting Apple and Blackberry offline backups faster than with the already supported clusters of high-end ATI and NVIDIA video accelerators. Pico support is planned for Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery.
Benchmark Performance
Pico Computing manufactures a range of high-end hardware acceleration platforms, offering a computational equivalent of over 2,000 dual-core processors in a single 4U chassis. By supporting Pico hardware, ElcomSoft leaps forward in the performance race, delivering market's best speed of recovery for Apple and BlackBerry backups and WPA/WPA2 Wi-Fi passwords.
"ElcomSoft pioneered hardware acceleration in password recovery", says Andrey Belenko, ElcomSoft leading crypto analytic and the original inventor of GPU-accelerated password recovery. "Today, together with Pico Computing we're breaking a record in performance, offering faster recovery than anything else on the market."
Pico's FPGA boards set a new benchmark in forensic computational performance. Actual password recovery performance with Pico hardware exceeds that of every other acceleration solution supported by ElcomSoft.
