Memory analysis is an essential method of electronic evidence discovery. It allows computer forensics to decrypt hard disks and files and extract encryption keys and passwords.
We are proud to introduce Passware Bootable Memory Imager – a new UEFI compatible tool that acquires memory images of Windows, Linux, and Mac computers.
Fine-tuning password recovery attacks is a complicated process. The new version features an improved attack editor that shows examples of generated passwords and makes it easy to experiment with attack settings.
We have also improved the performance of PDF password recovery, which is now 7 times faster on Decryptum. The new version supports instant decryption of FileVault/APFS volumes using a keychain file, introduces support for Tally.ERP 9, and more.

Passware Bootable Memory Imager
Passware introduces a new tool that runs from a bootable USB drive and acquires memory images of Windows, Linux, and Mac computers.
Passware Memory Imager works with Windows computers that have Secure Boot enabled.
The tool is available in Passware Kit Forensic and Business editions.
Preview of generated passwords
When you configure password recovery attacks in the “Customize Settings” option, Passware Kit displays examples of generated passwords that match the selected attack settings.
Instant FileVault/APFS decryption with a keychain
Passware Kit 2021 v1 instantly decrypts FileVault/APFS volumes and unlocks APFS on Macs with the Apple T2 Chip if a Keychain file from the corresponding iOS device image is available after decryption by third-party tools.
Password recovery for Tally.ERP 9
The new Passware Kit recovers passwords for company files created with Tally.ERP 9 software – Company.900. The recovery speed is up to 10 million passwords per second.
GPU-accelerated recovery of PDF owner password
In addition to PDF file open passwords, Passware Kit now recovers owner passwords and accelerates the recovery on both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs.
PDF password recovery improvements
GPU acceleration of password recovery for PDF files is even greater now!
Decryptum DPR 2080TI-T/12 4U is over 700% faster, processing over 450 million passwords per second on PDF with encryption revision 3-4.
The new version also supports PDF documents with custom length encryption keys.
Password recovery for MS SQL
In addition to resetting MS SQL passwords, Passware Kit 2021 v1 also recovers the original passwords for MS SQL databases (*.MDF). The password recovery speed is over 58,000 passwords per second.
Import of dictionaries preserving the order of passwords
There is now a new option that allows users to keep the original order of passwords in a dictionary when importing it into the Passware Kit.
This allows the use of password lists sorted by the frequency of use of those passwords. It is helpful when recovering passwords for file types with secure encryption, such as iTunes backups or hard disk images.
