An organization has a publicly accessible SSH service. The security team wants to attempt many user-password pairs to discover weak credentials. Which tool can be used for this task quickly and is known for supporting multiple protocols?
Gobuster
John the Ripper
Wireshark
Hydra
This utility is designed for network-based brute forcing across different protocols. It can attempt large password lists in quick succession. Wireshark focuses on traffic analysis rather than systematic brute force attacks. John the Ripper is commonly used for local password file analysis. Gobuster excels in enumerating exposed directories, not performing credential tests against a remote login prompt.
