.SH DESCRIPTION
Hydra is a parallized login cracker which supports numerous protocols
to attack. New modules are easy to add, beside that, it is flexible and

show how easy it would be to gain unauthorized access from remote to a
system.

Currently this tool supports:
 AFP, Cisco AAA, Cisco auth, Cisco enable, CVS, Firebird, FTP, HTTP-FORM-GET,
 HTTP-FORM-POST, HTTP-GET, HTTP-HEAD, HTTP-PROXY, HTTPS-FORM-GET, HTTPS-FORM-POST,
