The report shows a list of NT Hashes, the number of accounts (Count) using each hash, and the corresponding password (if cracked). The first entry: NT Hash: 4ECE6D7327FBE51357666957B7B7BCE8 Password: (blank/unknown) This means 18 different accounts are using the same password, but that password has not been cracked or revealed in the report-hence, it is "unknown."
