!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] [LM Hash] LAN Manager (LM) hashes are derived from the user password. Legacy support for LM hashes and the LAN Manager authentication protocol remains in the [NTLM protocol suite|NTLM SSP]. Default configurations in Windows and [Microsoft] security guidance have discouraged its use.

%%warning
The security of [{$pagename}] has been __severely__ compromised and is considered [Cryptographically Weak] and lacks [Collision Resistance].

[{$pagename}] (LM hashes) inherently are more vulnerable to attacks because:
* LM hashes require a password to be less than 15 characters long and they contain only [ASCII] characters. 
* LM hashes do not differentiate between uppercase and lowercase letters.
