Research direction
The issue names only the BitLocker CPU format and provides no file, test, or implementation details. Start by locating that format in the John the Ripper source and reviewing existing SIMD-enabled formats. The completion criteria are not specified, so the expected SIMD coverage and validation tests need clarification first.
