2025-11-15 , Room 402

The world of at home virtualization has become increasingly fast and affordable. This talk explores how to become your own crack dealer by distributing password-cracking workloads across Proxmox with GPU passthrough. We’ll explore how to set up and scale crack distribution pipelines across a virtual setup for both offensive cracking and research. Expect to dive into virtualization, hardware passthrough, cracking theory, and some automation.
