Password Security evaluates password strength, authentication policies, and implements measures to protect against brute-force and credential stuffing attacks.

What is Password Security?

Password security analyzes how the organization manages credentials: password complexity, expiration policies, multi-factor authentication, hash storage, and resistance against automated attacks. We identify weak, reused, or compromised passwords from public breaches.

How does it work?

We perform ethical password cracking using professional tools (Hashcat, John the Ripper) on provided hashes. We analyze Active Directory policies, verify MFA implementation, test resistance to dictionary attacks and rainbow tables. We report compromised passwords and recommend modern policies (NIST, OWASP).

Why is it important?

Weak passwords are the main cause of security breaches in Romania and globally. 81% of successful attacks exploit compromised credentials. A proper password policy and MFA prevent unauthorized access even if other security controls fail.

What risks does it prevent?

Who needs it?

Any organization in Romania with multiple users, Active Directory, web applications with authentication, or critical systems should periodically audit password security and implement modern authentication policies.
