Brute force timeout

Open relaxedricky opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Look this will be the last one today ... I promise ....

So brute force attacks, they run for the global timeout set within hashview. Can we have a way to set timeouts from within the task menu, so we can create a quick brute force task that only runs for an hour at max, one that runs 6 hours etc then the max being the global timeout.

I've found running a quick brute force and then cancelling the job after 30 min has yielded enough results for what I needed at the time.

markov chains have allowed hashcat to optimize the bruteforce function. This is why you are able to cancel it after 30 minutes.

In hashcat you can use the --runtime=1800 to get this result.
