Distributed password cracking platform coordinating GPU/CPU agents via Hashcat for high-speed hash recovery, with real-time job management, checkpointing, and analytics for penetration testers and red teams.
KrakenHashes is a distributed password cracking system designed for security professionals and red teams. The platform coordinates GPU/CPU resources across multiple agents to perform high-speed hash cracking using tools like Hashcat through a secure web interface. Think of KrakenHashes as a full management system for hashes during, after and before (if a repeat client). Ideally, while also checking hashes for known cracks, we update a potfile with every hash and that can be used as a first run against other types of hashes for a potential quick win.

⚠️ Active Development Warning
This project is currently in released and used in production environments. Key considerations:
Use at your own risk - This software may eat your data, catch fire, or summon a digital Kraken. You've been warned.
With the release of version 2.0.0, it should be a working for it's intended uses. While it may have bugs, I request that you open an issue (bottom of the frontend has a link). This tool is for legitimate professionals with permission from clients to run hashes for their testing. I am not responsible for how you use the tool or anything you do with it. In addition while the docs should be helpful, please let me know if you identify any issues.
