Vista and XP password recovery using Backtrack 4

Have you ever wondered how passwords are recovered. One way is to boot from a Linux Live CD/DVD/USB device running special software such as Backtrack 4

This is readily available software and whilst a little outside the average users skill-set, anyone who has a basic understanding of command line code should be able to use it.

The link here is from Cybexin's blog (one of my favorite's). He posts many informative video's about how-to which can be quite shocking if you ever thought your information was secure. If your information has value and you want to know how to protect it from these kinds of attacks contact FaberBrent.
