Conveniently, you start using this one, and as you get to know the program better, try the others, but we can tell you that when you finish with them, you will have to add another command to visualize the results obtained: You will see the methods we mentioned before, from Single to others. Once you have it at hand and you have installed this platform, you will need to go to the operating system command console and add the following: How to use John the Ripper? First, you will need to get a copy of the Security Account Manager file, also known as SAM, on your Windows computer, where the encrypted usernames and passwords are located. This is not a reason to dismiss this tool, far from it, but a simple superficial observation about what it offers to the eyes. However, it is true in the same way that we find that it could be more attractive to the eye. Then, as for its interface, we can say that in what is essential, which is the location of the functions and how intuitive it is, it more than fulfills. If any of them pops up, we recommend you change them as soon as possible. This program will take information such as the system user name, the actual name of the computer owner, and other loose data, generating all kinds of combinations with numbers and letters, and trying to crack your passwords. To give you an idea of how John the Ripper works, we will take the example of the Single Mode since it is the simplest of all. Our system generally has to mark them one by one and modify them. One of the modes we have found most interesting is the one that bets on looking for the most insecure passwords.
One of the main differences between John the Ripper and other similar programs is that it uses brute force to guess different passwords and has many other methods to obtain information. In its most noble use, this is an ideal option if you have doubts about the security of a password because if this program can unlock it, it is weak. Although they often seem insignificant, they can end up causing damage.
With this cryptographic application, we can recover passwords from the different data around the system. Many consider that proactive tools, i.e., specially developed to defend against attacks, are more secure. You have to bear in mind, however, that when we use this program for such purposes, we are using a reactive platform, which, as we said before, we use for a purpose that is often different from the usual one.
