GiliSoft Password Recovery is a specialized desktop utility designed to crack, bypass, or recover passwords for various file types and encrypted containers. Instead of recovering passwords from memory, it uses mathematical and computational methods to unlock files directly. The tool primarily targets:
If a password is protected by a hardware key (e.g., BitLocker with TPM and no PIN backup), GiliSoft cannot extract the necessary hash to attack.
This method uses a list of words (dictionary) to try and match the password. It's faster than brute force if the password is relatively simple or common.
This article is for educational purposes. Always ensure you have legal rights to attempt password recovery on any system or file.
Microsoft encryption hashes the password and stores it within the document structure. GiliSoft extracts the "password hash" (a scrambled representation) from the file. Then, for each guess, it hashes the guess and compares it to the stored hash. If they match, the password is found. This is fast because it doesn't require opening the entire document for each attempt.
During the initial installation of products like EXE Lock or USB Lock , the software prompts you to enter a valid recovery email address .
Password-protected ZIP, RAR, and 7z files.
, you are prompted to enter a valid email address. If you forget your password later, you can use the "Retrieve Password"
GiliSoft's password recovery tools are optimized for NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. They automatically detect available graphics cards and offload the heavy lifting. Users can see a real-time speed indicator (passwords per second). With a high-end GPU, a brute-force attack that would take 3 months on a CPU can finish in 3 days.
The software relies on three standard attack modes depending on the complexity of the lost password:
When you know absolutely nothing about the password. The catch: A 10-character password with uppercase, lowercase, and numbers has 839 quadrillion possibilities. At 10 million guesses per second (very fast), it could take more than two years.
