Do not input into google and search, use a HTLM hash generator and input "hacker!". You will get the same hash above. Agree with highly voted comments, C - correct answer

Verified hash on below: https://www.tunnelsup.com/hash-analyzer/ --> MD5 or MD4 https://hashes.com/en/tools/hash_identifier --> MD5 https://www.onlinehashcrack.com/hash-identification.php --> MD5, MD4 or NTLM hash-identifier app from Kali Linux --> MD5 Least Possible Hashs: [+] NTLM [+] MD4 [+] MD2 But I think the best answers would be C judging by the number of characters.

I would go for NTLM based on proximity to number of characters and format. Few Examples: Kerberos: $krb5pa$23$user$realm$salt$4e751db65422b2117f7eac7b7...... NetNTLMv1: u4-netntlm::kNS:338d08f8e26de933000000000000000000000000 NTLM: b4b9b02e6f09a9bd760f388b67351e2b SHA-1: b89eaac7e61417341b710b727768294d0e6a277b

Both the hash from the question and the NTLM hash are 32 characters and start with b followed by a number

According to this website: https://www.tunnelsup.com/hash-analyzer/ It is MD5 or MD4. I think all these answers are incorrect. However, I do believe the correct answer is: NTLM. C. Using this website: https://asecuritysite.com/encryption/lmhash?sortby=hashme gives us 33 characters of an NTML hash.

Possible that it is MD5 and that was accidentally left out here? watch for that! anyway, look A MD5 hash is nothing but a 32 digit hexadecimal number which can be something as follows: e4d909c290d0fb1ca068ffaddf22cbd0
