Uh, what?

I'd say that this is a bit relevant to the entire field of cyber security and a good chunk of development roles. If you're not concerned about how password hashing (which is a key component of understanding cracking) works as developer-- I'm not sure what to say. While not all of the in-depth research is probably needed. It's definitely relevant to many technical fields. I work in offensive security and we use tools like this daily in our industry. And no we are not cyber criminals.
