Runtime
, Change runtime type
, and set Hardware accelerator
to GPU.dothashcat
, with a hashes
subdirectory where you can store hashes.Runtime
and then Run all
.!bash
in a new cell to get access to an interactive shell on the Google Colab instance.Colabcat creates a symbolic link between the dothashcat
folder in your Google Drive and the /root/.hashcat
folder on the Google Colab session.
This enables seamless session restore even if your Google Colab gets disconnected or you hit the time limit for a single session, by syncing the .restore
, .log
and the .potfile
files across Google Colab sessions by storing them in your Google Drive.
The benchmarks
directory in this repository lists .txt
files with hashcat benchmarks run with hashcat -b
. The list of known Google Colab GPUs are listed below. An up to date list can be found in the Colab FAQ.
Issues and Pull Requests are always welcome. Feel free to contribute new Colab GPU benchmarks and features.
