stupid%.
Were going to start with a little introduction to ali 0inu1, because that is
the 3 I pre)er, is the easiest )or this task and comes with all the tools we
need% 4ali5 is a 0inu1 distribution and is the successor to the much
acclaimed acktrack, which many o) you reading this article will probably
know o)% $ow, there are many ways o) installing and using ali, i) anyone
needs any help, leae in the comments, and I will probably write another
post about installing and its basics in the )uture%
In this tutorial, Im going to hack into a Wi-Fi hotspot that I 6ust set up,
named ' Anonymus%
$ow, gien that we hae ail 0inu1, open up a terminal window, type in

8ere, we only need +wlan". which is our Wi-Fi card, so we can disable the
others by doing 4i)con7g 9name o) the inter)ace: down5%
+4lo5 does no matter.#

$ow, we type 4airmon-ng start wlan"5

+airmon-ng is 6ust a tool )or monitoring air tra;c, 4start5 basically startsthe tool, and 4wlan"5 speci7es the inter)ace we are using )or monitoring.
Itll probably show 4some processes that could cause trouble5, well simply

$ow i) we do 4i)con7g5, it should show us the newly made monitoring
inter)ace 4mon"5%
(hen, put in, 4airodump-ng mon"5%
In the screenshot below, the highlighted bssid is our target +and it is my
own., named 4Anonymus5, the channel is !< as we can see under the 4C85
column%

For our ne1t step we type in, 4airodump-ng 'c 9channel: -w 9name: '
bssid 9bssid: mon"5%

0et me e1plain a )ew things here, 4airodump-ng5 is a tool )or capturing Wi-
Fi packets, 49channel:5 means the channel your target is running on, 4-w5
basically writes a 7le by the name that succeeds it in 49name:5, +I did
4handshake5 6ust )or the conenience o) it. bssid is a string o) numbers
speci7c to a hotspot%
- Adertisement -
$ow, open up a new terminal and type in 4aireply-ng -" " 'a 9bssid:
mon"5, this command send a deauthentication signal +usually called a
deauth packet. to all the deices connected to that hotspot% (hen a)ter a
)ew seconds we stop it by 4Ctrl=C5% $ow, as we can see, the other terminal
shows that the WPA 8andshake was success)ully captured%

We can close both windows at this point, and open a new one% (ype 4ls5>
that should list the 7les in the current directory% We can clearly see that
the 7les )rom the aboe operation are present% ut we only need the 7le
ending with 4-"!%cap5%

(hen we do, 4aircrack-ng 'w 9)ull location o) the wordlist: 9the 7le

It will then start searching )or matching keys in the word list% $ow the time
that this will take is solely dependent on the strength o) the password% (he
stronger the password the more time will it take% For ery strong
