Hi All

I hope this message finds you well during these strange times.

There is an effort on the lugmaster mailing list to encourage sharing of virtual talks being given by various LUGs. See below for an invitation to a talk being given by Adam Sweet (Wolves LUG) later this month.

Cheers,
Philip

    Hi guys

    Details for our second monthly talk below. Please adapt and share as you 
    see fit for your list, forgive me talking about myself in the third person.

    Adam Sweet will be giving a talk on the evening of 17th March entitled:

    Password Cracking With a GPU and Why Complexity Matters

    This will be a demo of password cracking, how you can accelerate it 
    using a commodity graphics card and why the issues of complexity, 
    storage and re-use matter.

    Adam is a Linux sysadmin and consultant with 15 years experience. He is 
    the organiser of Wolverhampton Linux User Group, was a presenter on the 
    LugRadio podcast and organiser of the UKs largest annual Linux community 
    conference LugRadio Live before founding a Linux and Open Source support 
    and consultancy business.
