![]() ![]() ![]() The only challenge is to actually convert it to the proper format of standard crash dump format (DMP). It can be from the backup, obtained from the live system or a virtual machine. Main requirement is that you somehow have access to the required file (like hiberfil.sys), snapshot or the memory dump. Methods described in this article can be used in different scenarios: from the DFIR side and also from the offensive side. When you have those, there's no need for cracking at all and it doesn't depend on password strength/size. ![]() Something often overlooked is hiberfil.sys and/or virtual machine snapshots or memory dumps, as they usually contain passwords in plain text. While this can usually be the way to go, it can pose a huge challenge, as the result can depend on the strength of the storage format of the password and the strength of the password itself.
