You are attempting to crack LM Manager hashed from Windows 2000 SAM file. You will be using LM Brute force hacking tool for decryption. What encryption algorithm will you be decrypting?
The LM hash is computed according to these rules:
1. The user’s password as a string is converted to uppercase.
2. This password is either null-padded or truncated to 14 bytes.
3. The "fixed-length" password is split into two 7-byte halves.
4. These values are used to create two DES keys, one from each 7-byte half.
5. Each of these keys is used to DES-encrypt the constant ASCII string resulting in two 8-byte ciphertext values.
6. These two ciphertext values are concatenated to form a 16-byte value, which is the LM hash.
