Penetration Testing: Re: [PEN-TEST] Expand right under Win2K

["Barber, Chris" <cbarber () ESTGSECURITY COM>]

I just ran Cybercop 5.5 against an NT4 SP6a network and it was able to
detect easily guessable passwords (i.e. password, default, blank, ETC.,
INCLUDING password = username).

Keep it up to date because I know that the Dictionary grows with each
update.

In version 5.5, Cybercop has the ability to Crack UNIX passwords only, but
it has a tool named "SMBGrind", that can do a "Dictonary Attack" against
NTLM Auth, i believe.

But, in the same version, 5.5, the Cybercop Scanner can test if lsasecrets
can be obtained. I can remember, but in the last test I made, was possible
to obtain "lsasecrets" against WinNT SP5. Hmmm... I don't know...
