Technical requirements

To complete the lab at the end of the chapter, download and install Ophcrack and LCP from the Git repository for Chapter 5, which you will find at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Hands-On-Ethical-Hacking-Tactics/tree/main/Ch05.

The lab consists of cracking passwords using two different applications. During the lab, you will be able to see the use of brute force techniques as well as the use of rainbow tables. You may install these to the Windows Metasploitable if you do not wish to install them on your machine, as these types of applications are often categorized as malicious. In addition to the tools, also download SAM.TXT, which is the file you will be working with.
