Added new hashcat plugin "ENCsecurity Datavault" based on https://t.co/BN8C6tu306 from @Pelissier_S and Boi Sletterink. Up to 20MH/s, depending on configuration, on a single RTX2080Ti.

First @hashcat benchmarks on the new @nvidia RTX 4090! Coming in at an insane >2x uplift over the 3090 for nearly every algorithm. Easily capable of setting records: 300GH/s NTLM and 200kh/s bcrypt w/ OC! Thanks to blazer for the run. Full benchmarks here: https://t.co/Bftucib7P9

Pro results are official: hashcat 1st, Cynosure Prime close 2nd, https://t.co/rKLtzlXd4j 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 @CrackMeIfYouCan contest at #DEFCON30! It was extremely close at the end, everyone put up a great fight. Congrats to @CynoPrime for 2nd place and to HashMob for 3rd place. Thanks to KoreLogic and @PasswordVillage for organizing this year's contest.

From Team @hashcat, Good luck to all the Pro/Street teams competing in @CrackMeIfYouCan for @defcon! May your drinks stay cool and your GPUs too! cc: @CynoPrime @john_users @tr0ntastic

With the commit https://t.co/rDcsn9XbVE hashcat supports Apple's Metal as new compute backend. Thanks to @gm4tr1x for the contribution! All hash-modes and all attack-modes support OpenCL, CUDA, HIP or Metal as compute backend.

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: https://t.co/DA2py0eGZW Thanks to @tijldeneut and @banaanhangwagen for all the intense preparational work
