Hacking Windows User Account password
Passwords are Stored and Transmitted in an encrypted form called a Hash. When a User logs on to a system and enters a password, a hash is generated and compared to a stored hash. If the entered and the stored hashes match, the user is authenticated (This is called the Challenge/Response).
Passwords may be cracked manually or with automated tools such as a Brute-force method or the Rainbow Table attack.
In this if we put the password and windows vey the password we entered on teen with the file in which the password is stored of ours.
This is stored in a file named SAM.
It is shown in the picture above.
Now we need to attack this file.
For this we need to open this file but it is not possible as it is in process by the computer from its start up.
And we suppose that the file opens then also we cannot see the passwords stored in it because they are encrypted in the form of HASHES.
And they and not be decrypted. Ad it is the hardest encryption done and decryption is not easy.
But it is not impossible.
We Need a Bootable CD named Hiren boot and Can Crack the Password.
But Another Attack –
Go to C:\Windows\System32\
Copy the File cmd.exe to desktop and rename it to sethc.exe.
Now copy the file sethc.exe to C:\Windows\System32\ and will give an error, give that error YES. And replace it.
Now You Are Done.
Now At the Login Screen Press SHIFT Key 5 times and a beep Sound will come and Command prompt will open.
In the command prompt type “explorer.exe” and Hit Enter a desktop will open in the tab mode.Use The Computer Unlimited….
