The moment has come to get your hands dirty: let's write your first Rust program. As for all the code examples in this course, you can find the complete code in the accompanying Git repository: https://github.com/skerkour/black-hat-rust

  77 9,289 9.3 C

  John the Ripper jumbo - advanced offline password cracker, which supports hundreds of hash and cipher types, and runs on many operating systems, CPUs, GPUs, and even some FPGAs

  

Please note that in a real-world scenario, we may want to use optimized hash crackers such as hashcat or John the Ripper, which, among other things, may use the GPU to significantly speed up the cracking.

Now that the basic structure of our program is in place, we need to actually compute the SHA-1 hashes. Fortunately for us, some talented developers have already developed this complex piece of code and shared it online, ready to use in the form of an external library. In Rust, we call those libraries, or packages, crates. They can be browsed online at https://crates.io.
