| | Symantec Pulls Plug on L0phtCrack |
 | | The decision to discontinue support for L0phtCrack, also known as LC5, comes just months after Symantec stopped selling the application to customers outside the United States and Canada out of concerns that it violated cryptography export controls. |
 | | L0phtCraft can also be used to recover Windows and Unix account passwords to access user and administrator accounts whose passwords are lost or to streamline migration of users to newer authentication systems. |
 | | L0phtCrack was originally produced by the L0pht, the Boston, Mass.-based security research group founded by Peiter "Mudge" Zatko and Chris "Weld Pond" Wysopal. |
