List,As some of you may know, @stake has been bought bysymantec. And if that wasnt bad enough, they are no longerselling LC5 after the end of this month.And they have no plans on a replacement product.
In my experience, LC5 was about the best thing for speedyassessment of the password policy. Sure LC5 will still havesome use for awhile to come, but then what?
I know there are lots of other options, LCP, john, rainbow tables,and more, but as far as I know, nothing is near as speedyas LC.
What are your thoughts? Is there something out there as fast or close?
I had enough trouble getting an old junk PC for doing nessus scans on, so i knowa cluster is out of the question.
Thanks!Chris
