Sword fish the movie

Sword fish the movie
Hey I do not mean to cause any alarm but this is no way connected to swordfish_13(hez a nice guy ,won't you agree)

Well I guess almost all of you have seen the movie sword fish , rite ya I've seen it as I missed it due to my exams , I've managed to get some glimpses of it , so could you geeks if fee enough tell me what how does the hacker I donno his name manage to break a fire wall in under 30 sec , though he is using free BSD, I mean free BSD is no magic wand which will put down a fire wall is it??? quite amazing what all stuff they show you in a movie and ask you to believe it ?? or does this really happen . I mean I've heard to break a 128 bit fire wall you need all the computing power of the planet , is it possible that it can be done by hand or by a machine i.e to break through a fire wall
Impossible Eeh?
:p :rolleyes:

You know...some of us dont like being called geeks...so mind your language.

He's breacking a 128 bit password, not firewall...and it is impossible right now to do that in 30 seconds. IT IS A FREEGIN MOVIE! If you seriously believe anything you see in the movies...you got bigger problems that i thought.

well iam sorry , i din see the movie , i thought may be it was true like the movie BLACK HAWK DOWN , i am terribly sorry

Black Hawk Down was based on true events. No need to be sorry, Now you know :)

well iam sorry, i din see that movie , i tought it was based on som real incident like the movie BLACK HAWK DOWN .i am terribly sorry for calling you a geek

I broke 256 bit encryption in 15 seconds while being sucked, and using windows 3.1


err wait

that was just a hell of a good dream I had last night

never mind.

ha, ha , ha

I must admit I don't remember wether the guy brute-forced the password or used a password-file on it, but either way I seriously doubt it can be done. The only way to break through something like that so quickly is if you know a flaw [or made one; it was the guys cypher wasn't it?] and exploit it, but not by performing that attacks he did.

But the beginning hack [the one with the FBI or NSA DB I think] was as unreal as science fiction can get. Pls, after being for so long in the pen I would've enjoyed the ******* for those 30 seconds and to hell with the rest :P

Only thing I remember was he was typing like 2000 words a minute.

That movie was based on stuff that happened to me.

Witch part?
Cracking the password...
Or
Getting that suckie suckie....

Well.... The entire process of breaking a cipher definitely is not a quick thing.... But 128 bit WEP can be cracked in 7 seconds... After the 4 hour packet capture. ;)

It's true.............I lent him my HP Vectra 286 :)

Seriously though, the amount of time is also dependent on the strength of the password, isn't it?

If it is "administrator" or "password" or the manufacturer's default, it won't last long :D

just a thought

i guess the only way i can think that a password can be broken that quickly is if one uses a program like rainbowcrack -- and even then, it takes months to generate those types of libraries (not to mention the huge amount of space it takes)

My life was built on that movie, i though one day i will be leet and can crack a 128 bit pws in a minute....now my life has no meaning, i am hacker no more.....

good bye

That movie only had one good part and that was the whole Halle Berry thing :D. Other than that, Hacker's was much better ;).

LoL, yeah, swordfish would have been l33t if he cracked it, whilst getting his blow job and riding on a skateboard (even better, if the chick from hackers was giving him the blow job).
Oh well, you can't have it all :D

Cheers.

Yah it would be fake if it was what you ink it is but i personally think it is just a 128 bit myself.
But if you are that into movies man it seems like you watch to hard or something man that is crazy who can spot freeBSD like that...LOL my bro told me what is was so do not feel bad
And yah no some of us are not nerds man we are jsut smart for some reason... A COOL ! AT THAT...LOL

:booty:
















:drink: But But But i did........... really believe me i did............That was meeeeeee..... :(

hey i belive you , jokes apart, no wonder the filim was named after you ,

u there, ya you, stop giggling , he said it was him ,then it was him.

don feel bad sword fish i belive dat it was you !!

distortion of the truth or downright lie...who cares! it was a good movie and thank you all for making it

alright, cause of this post, i had to watch swordfish today cause i didn't remember it very well... i realized that all it really seems to be is mental masturbation (for lack of a better phrase) for all those computer people (notice i didn't say geek ;))

You are all wrong.

The film was loosely (Very Loosely) based round my life.

I regularly get kidnapped (Usually just asked by friends) and get made go to nightclubs.
I regularly crack 128 bit passwords while being blown. (Usually by desktop fan.)

And the 30 seconds thing isn't a problem because it was located on the local laptop therefor isn't it possible I just looked for the AUT file while at the console and cut and paste the password into the box.

As far as I am aware, he bruteforces the password. But I believe he basically bruteforces it himself (or that's what it looks like). But hey, if james bond can go through all the fights he gets into, etc. and not have any bruises, the guy in swordfish can do whatever the hell he wants. To be honest, it was a good film, but not for the computerness of it. It all just seemed a bit too fake. But then again, if they made it realistic, the majority of people would not want to watch it.

Who cares about the OS?

Halle Berry got naked!

/applause

Only this matter.... :wow:

Who's going to watch Catwoman? i for sure am couple of times :)

It was a "hacker" movie sponsored by a hardware company. (Dell) How realisitic do you think it could be?

dunno. soundtrack is a belter though !

I love John Travolta. :umph:

True hackers was better....but in some ways. Swoardfish didnt have the flashy hack scenes but it was more realistic in some ways.

And most important halle berry got naked.

In sword-fish they had a 30 to 40 year old man to play the l33t h4x0r guy... that in itself was even more pithetic than the situations the character was faced with.
