The god knows who is using L0phtCrack as a security auditing tool to do the so-called password strength testing or recovery. I conclude that 90% of individuals are using it to violently obtain the passwords itself (through methods of dictionary, brute-force, hybrid attacks, rainbow tables, etc.). Whatever you's like to use it for, what we just can't deny is that it's the most outstanding one in similar software.

As a network/system administrator's essential password audit and recovery tool, L0phtCrack (full name: L0phtCrack Password Auditor) can be used to detect whether the Windows/UNIX users' passwords are secure enough or not. Meanwhile, it's also the best and fastest Winodws/UNIX administrator account's password cracking tool (as it turns out, the simple or prone to being cracked administrator password is one of the biggest security threats, because in most cases, the attackers logged in the computer as a legal identity is often very difficult to detect).

L0phtCrack official describes it to be a password auditing and recovery tool providing two critical capabilities to system administrators, but AppNee always believes it has only one original design purpose: password cracking - and it has been characterized as a professional level of hacking tool.

In fact, if you want to get the passwords of people we can come into contact with in our life, using social engineering actually is much more efficient and easier than any tools. In particular, quite often, the commonly used passwords must be simple or easy to remember.
