Hi All,
I know there is a software that is capable of generating random passwords, based on a given user profile.
I've been Googling for the last hour or so, but I can't seem to find it. Is anyone in here able to tell the name of this software.
Thank you very much
Regards,

Can't remember which podcast show or article I read it from, but basically, if you gather enough information about a user, you can then generate passwords based on this information.
I am not trying to hack into anyone's account, I am just curious to know what kind of password this tool can generate, based on the gathered information for a given user.
Please let me know, if I am not making sense.

Are you referring to CeWL? http://www.digininja...ojects/cewl.php
Basically spiders are given website, and builds wordlist for cracking based on that. So for example... a company's website... or a users social network profile.
Idea behind it is that there is a good chance a password will be based on one of these. Combined that with wordlist-mangling (subsitutions and character additions + leet speak) you have a far greater chance of finding a valid password.

Yes, that's exactly what I was referring to. Thanks for that.

I think I remeber Social-Engineers SET toolkit does something along those lines as well.
