Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery Adds Multiprocessor/Multicore Support


MOSCOW, April 16 /PRNewswire/ --     ElcomSoft, a leader in password recovery, has added multiprocessor and
multicore support to Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery v. 2.50.

ElcomSoft's Windows password recovery software offers administrators a
comprehensive solution for recovering passwords to documents and files when
employees forget their passwords, or when they deliberately add passwords to
documents in an effort to sabotage their companies. The software is also used
by forensics, police, and military specialists worldwide to open locked
documents.

Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery (EDPR) provides password recovery
for all Microsoft Office documents, Microsoft Money and OneNote, Adobe
Acrobat PDF files, PKCS#12 certificates, LM/NTLM hashes used in Windows
NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008 logon passwords, PGP, Lotus Notes ID files, MD5
hashes, and UNIX and Oracle users' passwords.

Today, with support for the multiple cores found in all current AMD and
Intel processors, EDPR can operate significantly faster than before. Modern
PCs have motherboards that can accommodate one, two, or four CPU chips. Since
current CPU chips have two or four cores (which are, in fact, separate
processors), one computer can run EDPR sixteen times faster than before.

Before Distributed Password Recovery, the most effective way to recover a
lost password was to put the locked file on the fastest machine in the
company, and use brute force to attack the password. Distributed Password
Recovery lets you coordinate all of the unused computing power of every
computer on your LAN/WAN, and use distributed processing to restore the lost
password.

EDPR v. 2.50 runs on Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008; prices begin at
GBP499 for networks with up to 20 clients/agents. For more information and a
free trial version, please visit http://edpr.elcomsoft.com. Learn more about
