The password recovery for FileVault2 disks supports both GPU acceleration and distributed computing for maximum performance.

Passware Kit continues and improves integration with Oxygen Forensic Suite for mobile investigations and pioneers in recovering passwords for Android physical images.

Password recovery for Android images can be accelerated with NVIDIA and AMD graphic cards, as well as distributed computing, and reaches over 25,000 passwords per second with a single GPU.

New: GPU performance: 2x faster

Passware Kit 13.1 features an engine optimization that makes passwords recovery on GPU cards for most types of files on average twice as fast as before!

For TrueCrypt WDE the recovery speed is 3 times faster and now reaches 48,500 passwords per second, compared to 13,500 passwords per second with Passware Kit 13.0 on the same hardware.

Performance has also been increased by 1.5 times for RAR archives, and 1.8 times for MS Office 2007 files.
