The inSSIDer Wi-Fi scanner can do various tasks, including finding open Wi-Fi access points, tracking signal strength, saving logs with GPS records, collect data from wireless card and software, choose the best wireless channel available and more. You will need to create a free Metageek account in order to log in and use the WIFI hacking tool on your computer. This program has a command line interface and runs on a word-list that contains the password to use in the attack. The tool is really simple to use, but it is slow.
It means the same password will have a different SSIM. So, you cannot simply use the rainbow table against all access points. So, the tool uses the password dictionary and generates the hack for each word contained in the dictionary by using the SSID. The new version of the tool tried to improve the speed by using a pre-computed hash file. This pre-computed file contains around dictionary file for around most popular SSIs.
But if your SSID is not in those , you are unlucky. WepAttack is an open-source Linux tool for breaking This tool performs an active dictionary attack by testing millions of words to find the working key. Wireshark is a very popular network analyzer that can be used as a WIFI hacking tool. The network hacking tool was developed by hundreds of volunteers for various platforms. Often when using different tools, we tend to rely on YouTube for finding tutorials.
That would not be the case here with their extension knowledgebase tutorials, which include several video guides. You can head straight to the official YouTube channel to find full-fledged video series on using the tool on different platforms.
Coming to the features, you can deep inspect hundreds of different network protocols. We also get live capture along with offline analysis in various formats such as tcdump, Catapult DCT, and Pcap NG, amongst dozens of others.
It is a Linux-only network tool, available for several distros, designed explicitly for Kali Linux and ParrotSec. There is no graphical user interface on this network hacking tool. You get a command-line interface and a list of commands to use. If it is not available, you can go with after-market wireless cards through USB. You will need Aircrack-ng suite, ifconfig, and iwconfig for Wifite to work. There are several optional tools such as shark, reaver, amongst others, to augment the chances.
All the cracked passwords and handshakes are in the current directory. Next up, we have a man-in-the-middle attack on a WIFI network. Wifiphiser is a rogue access point network framework that can conduct red team engagements and WIFI penetration testing. Similar to Wifite, this program is also available exclusively for Linux.
You will need a working wireless adaptor with Monitor and AP mode. A plethora of community-driven phishing templates is available with the tool for deployment in different scenarios. Users can also write complicated Python driven scripts to create new phishing scenario templates for conducting target-oriented attacks.
There are several phishing templates of drivers and router firmware updates that are ready to use. You can take a leaf out of the booklet and modify them according to the requirements at hand. Wifiphisher offers an interactive textual interface, a much-needed relief from the mundane command-line offered by other tools. You are out in public, often seeing tons of WIFI networks but password protected. It comes with monitor mode support. Officially takes an average of 4 to 10 hours through the online brute-force method.
Wireless hacking tools are designed to help secure and attack these wireless networks. Some are designed to help gain access to the network password and the network itself. Others provide information about the structure and traffic flowing over the network, informing later attacks. Wireless networks are based on IEEE Infrastructure networks have one or more access points that coordinate the traffic between the nodes.
But in ad hoc networks, there is no access point; each node connects in a peer-to-peer way. Two types of vulnerabilities can be found in the Wireless LAN. One is poor configuration and the other is poor encryption. Poor configuration is caused by the network admin who manages the network. It may include a weak password, a lack of security settings, use of default configurations and other user-related issues.
Poor encryption is related to security keys used to protect the wireless network. WEP, or Wired Equivalent Privacy, is a deprecated security protocol that was introduced back in as a part of the original However, it was weak, and several serious weaknesses were found in the protocol. Now, this can be cracked within minutes. A new Wi-Fi security protocol was introduced in To get unauthorized access to a network, one needs to crack these security protocols.
Many tools can crack Wi-Fi encryption. Wireless hacking tools are of two types. One can be used to sniff the network and monitor what is happening in the network.
These are the popular tools used for wireless password cracking and network troubleshooting. Aircrack-ng is one of the most popular wireless password cracking tools that you can use for Aircrack-ng uses the best algorithms to recover wireless passwords by capturing packets.
Once enough packets have been gathered, it tries to recover the password. To make the attack faster, it implements a standard FMS attack with some optimizations. The company behind the tool also offers an online tutorial where you can learn how to install and use this tool to crack wireless passwords. You can use any of these.
It supports most of the wireless adapters and is almost guaranteed to work. If you are using a Linux distribution, the only drawback of the tool is that it requires deeper knowledge of Linux. If you are not comfortable with Linux, you will find it hard to use this tool. Before you start using this too, confirm that the wireless card can inject packets.
Then start WEP cracking. Read the online tutorial on the website to know more about the tool. If you follow the steps properly, you should be able to successfully crack a Wi-Fi network protected with WEP. Wifite is a Python script designed to simplify wireless security auditing.
It runs existing wireless hacking tools for you, eliminating the need to memorize and correctly use the different tools with their various options.
Wifite2 is a complete rewrite of the original Wifite tool. Before running Wifite, it is recommended to install their optional tools as they are essential for running some of the supported attacks. It passively collects packets being broadcast in its vicinity and analyzes them to detect even hidden Wi-Fi networks.
Kismet is supported on all operating systems using WSL on Windows and is actively supported. The last release significantly re-architected the system to improve performance and add new features. Wifiphisher is a tool designed to perform man-in-the-middle attacks by exploiting Wi-Fi association. By convincing wireless users to connect to the rogue access point, Wifiphisher provides an attacker with the ability to intercept and monitor or modify their wireless traffic. Hotspots are available in public places such as airports, restaurants, parks, etc.
In this tutorial, we will introduce you to common techniques used to exploit weaknesses in wireless network security implementations. We will also look at some of the countermeasures you can put in place to protect against such attacks.
A wireless network is a network that uses radio waves to link computers and other devices together. The implementation is done at the Layer 1 physical layer of the OSI model. You will need a wireless network enabled device such as a laptop, tablet, smartphones, etc. You will also need to be within the transmission radius of a wireless network access point.
Most devices if the wireless network option is turned on will provide you with a list of available networks. If the network is not password protected, then you just have to click on connect. If it is password protected, then you will need the password to gain access. Since the network is easily accessible to everyone with a wireless network enabled device, most networks are password protected.
It was developed for IEEE Its goal was to provide the privacy equivalent to that provided by wired networks. WEP works by encrypting the data been transmitted over the network to keep it safe from eavesdropping. Open System Authentication OSA — this methods grants access to station authentication requested based on the configured access policy. The station encrypts the challenge with its key then responds.
If the encrypted challenge matches the AP value, then access is granted.
