About hate_crack
hate_crack is a Hashcat automation wrapper from TrustedSec that implements a systematic methodology for password cracking. It chains multiple attack modes in order of efficiency: quick dictionary attacks, rule-based mutations, combinator attacks, hybrid attacks, and finally brute-force. The tool integrates with custom wordlists, applies intelligent rule stacking, and manages Hashcat sessions across complex cracking campaigns. It tracks progress across attack phases and resumes interrupted sessions. hate_crack codifies expert password cracking methodology into a repeatable automated workflow that maximizes crack rates while minimizing GPU time.
