How To Hack WPAWPA2 Wi Fi With Kali Linux Aircrack ng          Kali Linux can be used for many things, but it probably is best known for its ability to penetration test, or hack, WPA and WPA2 networks. There are hundreds of Windows applications that claim they can hack WPA dont get them Theyre just scams, used by professional hackers, to lure newbie or wannabe hackers into getting hacked themselves. There is only one way that hackers get into your network, and that is with a Linux based OS, a wireless card capable of monitor mode, and aircrack ng or similar. Also note that, even with these tools, Wi Fi cracking is not for beginners. Playing with it requires basic knowledge of how WPA authentication works, and moderate familiarity with Kali Linux and its tools.

If you feel you have the necessary skills, lets begin These are things that youll need If you have these then roll up your sleeves and lets see how secure your network is          Important notice Hacking into anyones Wi Fi without permission is considered an illegal act or crime in most countries. We are performing this tutorial for the sake of penetration testing, hacking to become more secure, and are using our own test network and router. By reading andor using the information below, you are agreeing to our Disclaimer. Step One Start Kali Linux and login, preferably as root. Step Two Plugin your injection capable wireless adapter, Unless your native computer wireless card supports it. If youre using Kali in VMware, then you might have to connect the card via the icon in the device menu. Step Three Disconnect from all wireless networks, open a Terminal, and type airmon ng. Chess 2008 For Windows 7 there. This will list all of the wireless cards that support monitor not injection mode. If no cards are listed, try disconnecting and reconnecting the adapter if youre using one and check that it supports monitor mode. If youre not using an external adapter, and you still dont see anything listed, then your card doesnt support monitor mode, and youll have to purchase an external one see the link in the requirements. You can see here that my card supports monitor mode and that its listed as wlan. Step Four Type airmon ng start followed by the interface name of your wireless card. The monitor mode enabled message means that the card has successfully been put into monitor mode. Note the name of the new monitor interface, mon. EDIT A bug recently discovered in Kali Linux makes airmon ng set the channel as a fixed 1 when you first enable mon. If you receive this error, or simply do not want to take the chance, follow these steps after enabling mon. Type ifconfig interface of wireless card down and hit Enter. Replace interface of wireless card with the name of the interface that you enabled mon. This disables the wireless card from connecting to the internet, allowing it to focus on monitor mode instead. After you have disabled mon. Enter. Step Five Type airodump ng followed by the name of the new monitor interface, which is probably mon. If you receive a fixed channel 1 error, see the Edit above. Step Six Airodump will now list all of the wireless networks in your area, and a lot of useful information about them. Locate your network or the network that you have permission to penetration test. Once youve spotted your network on the ever populating list, hit Ctrl C on your keyboard to stop the process. Note the channel of your target network. Step Seven Copy the BSSID of the target network. Now type this command airodump ng c channel bssid bssid w rootDesktop monitor interfaceReplace channel with the channel of your target network. Paste the network BSSID where bssid is, and replace monitor interface with the name of your monitor enabled interface, mon. The w and file path command specifies a place where airodump will save any intercepted 4 way handshakes necessary to crack the password. Here we saved it to the Desktop, but you can save it anywhere. A complete command should look similar this airodump ng c 1. BF E0 E8 D5 w rootDesktop mon. Now press enter. Step Eight Airodump with now monitor only the target network, allowing us to capture more specific information about it. What were really doing now is waiting for a device to connect or reconnect to the network, forcing the router to send out the four way handshake that we need to capture in order to crack the password. Also, four files should show up on your desktop, this is where the handshake will be saved when captured, so dont delete themBut were not really going to wait for a device to connect, no, thats not what impatient hackers do. Were actually going to use another cool tool that belongs to the aircrack suite called aireplay ng, to speed up the process. Instead of waiting for a device to connect, hackers can use this tool to force a device to reconnect by sending deauthentication deauth packets to one of the networks devices, making it think that it has to reconnect with the network. Of course, in order for this tool to work, there has to be someone else connected to the network first, so watch the airodump ng and wait for a client to show up. It might take a long time, or it might only take a second before the first one shows. If none show up after a lengthy wait, then the network might be empty right now, or youre to far away from the network. You can see in this picture, that a client has appeared on our network, allowing us to start the next step. Step Nine Leave airodump ng running and open a second terminal. In this terminal, type this command aireplay ng 0 2 a router bssid c client bssid mon. The 0 is a short cut for the deauth mode and the 2 is the number of deauth packets to send. BSSID, replace router bssid with the BSSID of the target network, which in my case, is 0. BF E0 E8 D5. c indicates the clients BSSID, the device were trying to deauth, noted in the previous picture. Replace the client bssid with the BSSID of the connected client, this will be listed under STATION. And of course, mon. My complete command looks like this aireplay ng 0 2 a 0. BF E0 E8 D5 c 4. C EB 4. DE 3. Step Ten Upon hitting Enter, youll see aireplay ng send the packets. If you were close enough to the target client, and the deauthentication process works, this message will appear on the airodump screen which you left open This means that the handshake has been captured, the password is in the hackers hands, in some form or another. You can close the aireplay ng terminal and hit Ctrl C on the airodump ng terminal to stop monitoring the network, but dont close it yet just incase you need some of the information later. If you didnt receive the handshake message, then something went wrong in the process of sending the packets. Unfortunately, a variety of things can go wrong. You might just be too far away, and all you need to do is move closer. The device youre attempting to deauth might not be set to automatically reconnect, in which case youll either have to try another device, or leave airodump on indefinitely until someone or something connects to the network. If youre very close to the network, you could try a Wi. Fi spoofing tool like wifi honey, to try to fool the device into thinking that youre the router. However, keep in mind that this requires that you be significantly closer to the device than the router itself.
