Revision as of 08:47, 3 January 2007 by OverlordQ (talk | contribs) (Misplaced Pages is not DMOZ)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)RainbowCrack is the name of a computer program which performs password cracking. RainbowCrack differs from "conventional" brute force crackers in that it uses large pre-computed files called rainbow tables to reduce the length of time needed to crack a password drastically.
RainbowCrack was developed by Zhu Shuanglei, and implements an improved time-memory trade-off cryptanalysis attack which originated in Philippe Oechslin's Ophcrack.
