Repository Details

Hunting for passwords with deep learning

DeepPass

Dockerized application that analyzes documents for password candidates.

The blogpost "DeepPass β€” Finding Passwords With Deep Learning" gives more detail on the approach and development of the model.

To run: docker-compose up

This will expose http://localhost:5000 where documents can be uploaded.

The API can manually be used at http://localhost:5000/api/passwords :

C:\Users\harmj0y\Documents\GitHub\DeepPass>curl -F "file=@test_doc.docx" http://localhost:5000/api/passwords
[{"file_name": "test_doc.docx", "model_password_candidates": [{"left_context": ["for", "the", "production", "server", "is:"], "password": "P@ssword123!", "right_context": ["Please", "dont", "tell", "anyone", "on"]}, {"left_context": ["that", "the", "other", "password", "is"], "password": "LiverPool1", "right_context": [".", "This", "is", "our", "backup."]}], "regex_password_candidates": [{"left_context": ["for", "the", "production", "server", "is:"], "password": "P@ssword123!", "right_context": ["Please", "dont", "tell", "anyone", "on"]}], "custom_regex_matches": null}]

Apache Tika is used to extract data from various document formats. Tensorflow Serving is used for serving the model.

The neural network is Bidirectional LSTM:

embedding_dimension = 20
dropout = 0.5
cells = 200

model = Sequential()
model.add(Embedding(total_chars, embedding_dimension, input_length=32, mask_zero=True))
model.add(Bidirectional(LSTM(cells)))
model.add(Dropout(dropout))
model.add(Dense(1, activation='sigmoid'))

It was trained on 2,000,000 passwords randomly selected from this leaked password list and 2,000,000 extracted terms from various Google dorked documents. The stats for the .1 test set are:
