Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 497

What feature of Decryption Collection allows an investigator to crack a password as quickly as possible?

Answer options

• A. Cracks every password in 10 minutes
• B. Distribute processing over 16 or fewer computers
• C. Support for Encrypted File System
• D. Support for MD5 hash verification

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, B, is accurate because distributing processing tasks among multiple computers significantly speeds up the decryption process. Option A is incorrect as it does not reflect the actual mechanism of the feature, while C and D are features that do not directly enhance the speed of password cracking.
