Ncrack is a high-speed network authentication cracking tool. It
was built to help companies secure their networks by proactively
testing all their hosts and networking devices for poor passwords.
Security professionals also rely on Ncrack when auditing their
clients. Ncrack was designed using a modular approach, a command-line
syntax similar to Nmap and a dynamic engine that can adapt its
behaviour based on network feedback. It allows for rapid, yet
reliable large-scale auditing of multiple hosts.
Ncrack's features include a very flexible interface granting the
user full control of network operations, allowing for very
sophisticated bruteforcing attacks, timing templates for ease of
use, runtime interaction similar to Nmap's and many more. Protocols
supported include RDP, SSH, HTTP(S), SMB, POP3(S), VNC, FTP, SIP,
Redis, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Telnet.
