Cain & Abel is a password recovery tool for
Microsoft Operating Systems.
It allows easy recovery of various kind of passwords by sniffing
the network,
cracking encrypted passwords using Dictionary, Brute-Force and
Cryptanalysis
attacks, recording VoIP conversations, decoding scrambled
passwords, recovering wireless network keys, revealing password boxes,
uncovering
cached passwords and analyzing routing protocols. The program does
not exploit
any software vulnerabilities or bugs that could not be fixed with
little effort.
It covers some security aspects/weakness present in protocol's
standards, authentication
methods and caching mechanisms; its main purpose is the simplified
recovery
of passwords and credentials from various sources, however it also
ships some
"non standard" utilities for Microsoft Windows users.
Cain & Abel has been developed in the hope that it will be useful for
network administrators, teachers, security consultants/professionals, forensic
staff, security software vendors, professional penetration tester and everyone
else that plans to use it for ethical reasons. The author will not help or support
