(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); i know that bruteforce attacks take forever but if you have 10 ps3s and like a supercomputer or a few very powerful pcs and on each one run a bruteforce attack on the ps3 between different values that way it takes less time?

Obviously thought of before

so is that a no?

it'd still take like 4 months

Sadly at the rate we're going, it'd be faster than the community could come up with the answer!

Umm here's the thing, once we get those joists, they will just change them... It's really just not a reliable method unless if there was like every one on the ps3 scene doing it. And even then, it won't really work,

This is how long it would roughly take to bruteforcing your way to an AES128 xbox360 key (key to decrypt xex)
(if you would/could calculate even more precise, one would find out it would probably take even longer then the numbers below)

5,395,141,535,403,007,094 million years
5,395,141,535,403,007 billion years
(based on the max nr of seconds per key being 1.7 x 10^32)

The key you want to find uses AES256 which is twice as long
and 128 exponentially greater then the 360 key.

To illustrate the complexity of AES256;

Needless to say this is simply not feasible and with current technology cannot be accomplished.

iknow that it would take forever but couldt you have like 10 computers each looking for a different range of keys? this would mean the more pcs you have the faster it would be

Its possiblefor someone to create a distributed bruteforcer program that everyone around the world can run..but its still no use.

Make bruteforcer 1,000,000 times faster, make computers 1,000 times more powerful and asuming every individual in the world has a pc let them join your attack as well

So more like 7,000,000,000 (world population)

5,395,141,535,403,007,094,485,264 years ÷ (1,000,000 x 1,000 x 7,000,000,000)

and it would still take:
770734 years

You asked a question like this a couple of weeks ago, bruteforce is not the way when keys are so random and long these days
