Security - Wifite #32

Open jaylong255 opened 3 months ago

jaylong255 commented 3 months ago

Wifite is a popular tool used for automating the process of attacking wireless networks. It is designed to work with WPA/WPA2 and WEP encrypted networks and is commonly used for penetration testing and security auditing.

Here’s a brief overview of what Wifite can do:

Wifite is typically used in conjunction with tools like Aircrack-ng or Hashcat for cracking passwords after capturing handshakes. It is usually run from a Linux environment, such as Kali Linux, where it is often pre-installed.

Note: Using Wifite or any similar tool on networks you do not own or have explicit permission to test is illegal and unethical. Always ensure you have authorization before performing any security testing.
