Elcomsoft has accelerated the selection of WPA2-keys 100 times

ElcomSoft stated that using hardware acceleration (using NVidia GPU processors), it accelerated the WPA and WPA2 keys selection process, which are used to protect WiFi communications sessions, a hundred times.

With the help of the latest program for distributed key hacking, you can create a network of ten workstations, each of which will have two GeForce GTX280 video cards installed, and the entire network can work on hacking one password. The process will take only a few days or weeks, not years, as before.

According to the experts of Elcomsoft, they managed to de facto “bury” the WPA2 technology as such. Firms can no longer rely on this standard for corporate security.

However, independent experts, including Bruce Schneier, call such statements no more than PR from Russian hackers, merchants who sell their software not for one hundred dollars.
