User:Racfsnow
I am the author of the PC Computer program called Racfsnow which attempts to crack offline mainframe passwords from IBM's RACF database, hence my username.

I assisted Dhiru Kholia with information around the algorithm and implementation of the password hashing function in RACF for inclusion in the John the Ripper program in 2012.

I also raised feature enhancement request TRAC #192 to get RACF password hashes added to Hashcat.

Received an acknowledgement as one of a group of book reviewers for the first text book published on Mainframe Basics for Security Professionals.
