We just added support to crack Windows "Hello" PIN/Password authentication in hashcat! Regarding all technical details, please have a look at this forum thread: hashcat.net/forum/thread-1… Thanks to Tijl Deneut and @banaanhangwagen for all the intense preparational work

With the commit github.com/hashcat/hashca… hashcat supports Apple's Metal as new compute backend. Thanks to Matrix for the contribution! All hash-modes and all attack-modes support OpenCL, CUDA, HIP or Metal as compute backend.

From Team hashcat, Good luck to all the Pro/Street teams competing in KoreLogic for DEF CON! May your drinks stay cool and your GPUs too! cc: CynoSure Prime john-users team trontastic

Pro results are official: hashcat 1st, Cynosure Prime close 2nd, HashMob.net Users - Pro close 3rd. There's a slight undercount for some Street hashes, where 1-4 place are all very close, so might make a difference, stay tuned.

Team hashcat has won the KoreLogic contest at #DEFCON30! It was extremely close at the end, everyone put up a great fight. Congrats to CynoSure Prime for 2nd place and to HashMob for 3rd place. Thanks to KoreLogic and Password Village for organizing this year's contest.
