Wyd is a tool for password profiling. The general idea is to personalize or profile the available data about a "target" person or system and generate a wordlist of possible passwords/passphrases out of available information. Instead of just using the command 'strings' to extract all the printable characters out of all type of files, we wanted to eliminate as much false-positives as possible. The goal was to exclude as much "unusable" data as possible to get an effective list of possible passwords/passphrases. It is very effective to get reasonable passwords from websites or filesystems.
