We have built a specialized hardware and software infrastructure optimized for rapid and efficient password recovery. Each server runs continuously at maximum hardware load to find your password as quickly as possible.
If you're not fully familiar with how password cracking works, we recommend first reading the "The Password Recovery Process" page. In this article, we'll describe the capabilities and power of our cloud service.
Hardware
At the core of our cloud service is a computing cluster composed of high-performance graphics processing unit (GPU) servers—unlike typical data centers, which primarily rely on central processing units (CPUs).
Why GPUs? Great question! Graphics processors were initially designed to handle numerous parallel calculations, making them ideal for our task. GPUs feature a simpler core architecture compared to CPUs, allowing graphics processors to be densely packed onto microchips and efficiently handle simultaneous parallel computations across thousands of cores. Modern graphics cards contain thousands of these units, enabling calculations to occur tens or even hundreds of times faster than with the most powerful CPUs. Originally designed solely for 3D rendering, GPUs once had closed architectures. However, recent advancements like the CUDA and OpenCL frameworks now allow graphics cards to power virtually any computational task.
Each GPU server is a robust machine equipped with multiple high-end graphics cards, capable of testing millions of password combinations per second. By linking multiple servers into a cluster, we create a high-performance system executing hundreds of millions of operations every second. This setup lets us recover passwords for hundreds of files simultaneously—and this capacity continues to grow. We're continuously enhancing our system, upgrading hardware, and increasing server count, which boosts our performance despite the ongoing advancements in encryption algorithms.
Our computing cluster includes multiple small data centers strategically located in various geographic regions. This distribution allows us to temporarily deactivate one or even an entire data center for upgrades or maintenance without significantly impacting overall performance. While this might slightly extend recovery times during peak periods, you'll never see an outage notice or experience downtime.
Software
Our software ensures uninterrupted system performance under continuous maximum load. Each server runs at 100% utilization, with workload evenly distributed across all cluster nodes to eliminate downtime.
The password-cracking software leverages the OpenCL framework, maximizing the efficiency and speed of GPU-based password searches.
Security
We utilize Linux server operating systems, known for their strong focus on security. All data exchanged between our servers and users is securely encrypted, and files uploaded to our service are stored in specially designed encrypted storage.
