Advanced Office Password Recovery: it’s all about the speed
Advanced Office Password Recovery (AOPR) received an important performance update, doubling or even quadrupling the recovery speed on certain versions of Microsoft Office when running CPU-only attacks. This performance update thoroughly optimizes the engine, resulting in the 2x improvement on password recovery speeds for Microsoft Office 2003 documents and the 4x improvement for Office 2016 documents when running CPU-only attacks.
In addition, we’ve improved the speed of GPU-assisted attacks 30 to 100% on some NVIDIA GPUs.

Breaking Wi-Fi Passwords
Modern wireless networks are securely protected with WPA/WPA2. The most frequently used method of securing access to a wireless network is pre-shared passphrase, or, simply put, a text password. The WPA standard enforces the minimum length of 8 characters for all Wi-Fi passwords. Considering the relatively low performance of WPA/WPA2 password attacks, brute force attacks are rarely effective even when performed with a network of GPU-accelerated computers. In this article, I will show how to attack wireless passwords for the purpose of security audit.
