Hydra is a multi-protocol, parallelized authentication brute forcer.

accelerated SIGNIFICANTLY, however it depends on the protocol.

|
|
The fastest is generally POP3, then FTP, then Telnet, and the least

|
|
|
|
IMAP.

Experiment with the task option (-t) to speed things up. The higher,
|
|
|
|
|
the faster (but too high, and it disables the service). To prevent
|
|
|
|
|
disabling you can now use the -g option for "slow-starts".
