No need to look... I'm quite familiar with Urity's work ;) He spoke just before I did at a Blackhat conference a while back... We had dinner together (I think that was then... Rika translated for us...) and discussed it a bit.

The presentation at BH Windows 2002 is more relevant than Tokyo, actually... In 2004 he discussed the NTLM2 response key-- that is not the same as the NTLMv2 challenge/response exchange... I may tend to be a bit pedantic sometimes, but I think it is important to be accurate when discussing security matters, particularly in the realm of authentication protocols. Since you said "NTLMv2" broke the hash into "chunks," I thought it proper to correct that statement. NTLMv2's challenges and responses are all 128 bit, linear keys.

Even NTLMv2  will break the hashing into chunks which are able to be
individually broken down.

I'm not sure what you mean... NTLMv2 uses a single 128bit key for the hash, challenge and response... Or are you referring to the NTLM2 session response key (56+56+16)? If so, that is not the same thing as NTLMv2... Can you elaborate please ?
