Re: Highlighting weak password dangers

I want to highlight the danger of using weak passwords on servers and users
admin desktops. I have tested TSgrinder with a basic dictionary Brute Force
to access Remote Desktop exploit on both servers and desktops. The problem
here is that when connected to domain, the Account Lockout feature disables
the account quite soon. I can only show the exploit on machines not
connected to the domain where Domain Security policy doesn't flow down.

What are other interesting and intriguing ways to present this problem? I
also need a system to do Passwords Audit on my domain and make then 'secure
password' policy compliance.

Try Babel Enterprise, it runs on Linux, Windows (XP, 2003 Server, 2000) and
most Unix (HP-UX, AIX...)

Hope this helps.
