A collection of hashcat and John the Ripper rules for password cracking, optimized for common password generation patterns.
What is clem9669 rules?
Hashcat-rules is a collection of rule files for hashcat and John the Ripper, designed to crack passwords by applying common transformations like adding digits, punctuation, or years. It solves the problem of inefficient password cracking by providing optimized, non-random rules that target predictable password generation habits. The project includes rule sets of varying sizes for different hashing algorithm speeds.
Security professionals, penetration testers, and red teamers who use hashcat or John the Ripper for password cracking and need efficient, targeted rule sets.
Developers choose this for its curated, practical rules that avoid randomness, focus on common password patterns, and are optimized for performance with different hash algorithms, unlike broader rule collections.
