Brute Force with a Mask

With a Brute Force with a mask, if you supply the correct mask, which is the most important criterion, we guarantee 100% success. Even a minor blunder, such as omitting a numeral or a sign, can result in a failure.

For you to recover your password using this method, you need to know the password structure. For instance, the length and the symbols used in it. It could take from one to two weeks for recovering such a password.
