Aircrack-ng 1.2

Publisher Description

Aircrack-ng can recover keys once enough data packets have been captured on your wireless network. The application uses the FMS attack, the KoreK attacks and also the new PTW attack making it much faster and more effective than other WEP cracking tools and programs. You can use the set of tools to audit wireless networks as well.

It focuses on different areas of WiFi security:
- Monitoring: Packet capture and export of data to text files for further processing by third party tools.
- Attacking: Replay attacks, deauthentication, fake access points and others via packet injection.
- Testing: Checking WiFi cards and driver capabilities (capture and injection).
- Cracking: WEP and WPA PSK (WPA 1 and 2).

All tools are command line which allows for heavy scripting. A lot of GUIs have taken advantage of this feature. It works primarily Linux but also Windows, OS X, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, as well as Solaris and even eComStation 2.
