Lastbit SQL Password Recovery
-
Version
2.5.593
SQL Password is a password recovery tool for Microsoft
SQL Server that can recover password for registered
user accounts. The following versions of MS SQL Server
are supported: 2000, 2005, 2005, 2008 (all editions).
Because of the nature of the security system used in
MS SQL Server, you have two options when recovering
lost or forgotten passwords: 1) you can try to recover
the original password. MS SQL Server encrypts
passwords and they cannot be easily decrypted, so SQL
Password uses the following recovery methods to crack
them: Brute Force Attack, Dictionary Attack and Smart
Force Attack. Although there is a guarantee that the
password will be recovered, it may take a long time.
So, in most cases (i.e. an administrator who has
forgotten his or her password) the best option is the
second one: 2) you can reset the password to a known
one. SQL Password performs this operation instantly by
modifying the master.mdf file where SQL Server stores
passwords. If you use this feature, you do not have to
wait until the password is cracked, though the
original password remains unknown. This change is
transparent and you may continue to work with the
database as usual, using the new password to log on.
You can use SQL Password to recover or reset any
password found in the user accounts file of MS SQL
Server, including the password for the system
administrator (whose username is "sa"). Like every
other our password recovery tool, SQL Password is
efficient, reliable and easy-to-use. Note: if SQL
Server is configured to use the standard Windows
security accounts ("Windows authentication mode"), SQL
Password will not be able to recover passwords. SQL
Password is able to recover passwords if SQL Server
uses SQL authentication.
