Breaking encrypted passwords has been of interest to hackers for a long time,
and protecting them has always been one of the biggest security problems operating
systems have faced, with Microsoft’s Windows being no exception.
Windows
NT introduced the NTLM(NT LanManager) authentication method to provide
stronger authentication. The NTLM protocol was originally released in version
1.0(NTLM), and was changed and fortified in NT SP6 as NTLMv2. When
exchanging files between hosts in a local area network, printing documents on
a networked printer or sending commands to a remote system, Windows uses
a protocol called CIFS - the Common Internet File System. CIFS uses NTLM
for authentication.
