Bruteforcing SSH on Vulnerable Devices Using Hydra on MacOS
Many new newbies want to get into the world of hacking, but don't know where to start. This article will teach you the basics of hacking with bruteforce.
The first step of this process will be installing Hydra.
First, install the latest version of Python.
Next install brew with this command to install brew:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Next, we want to install Hydra
Install hydra
brew install hydra
Finally, we can run hydra with the following command:
hydra -l root -P passwords.txt 10.10.10.10 ssh
Replacing "root" with whatever the username of whatever user on the system we are trying to crack.
And replacing passwords.txt with whatever wordlist we are using to crack.
Finally replacing 10.10.10.10 with the IP of the device we are cracking.

Hope this helps!
