Offensive Security Wireless Attacks - WiFu v3.0 + Videos

This course is designed to expose various wireless insecurities to the student and teach
practical procedures to attack and penetrate wireless networks. It was designed by Thomas
d’Otreppe de Bouvette, the author of the Aircrack-NG suite, Mati Aharoni, and Devon
Kearns. Aircrack is by far the single most popular tool in the realm of wireless security
assessment with a large range of capabilities. Together with Offensive Security, a
comprehensive list of attack methodologies and techniques was created, resulting in this
course.
The presentation of this course tends to be quite challenging, as it is very tempting to jump
straight into the practical hacking methods. However, we quickly realized that a proper
introduction of the terms and concepts was required in order to fully benefit from this
course. The first few modules will provide the basic overview of the wireless arena and get
you familiar with the technical environment. In further modules, we’ll discuss and practice
hacking methods and techniques. We can promise you that the first couple of chapters in
the course manual might be a bit boring with lots of definitions, explanations, acronyms,
packet dumps, and diagrams. However, without a thorough understanding of the basics,
true WiFu is not achieved. Please bear with us the first few chapters and do your best not to
skip them. It really is worth it!
In the attacks ahead, we will often be repeating commands, for example, to initialize the
wireless card. This may, at first, seem redundant but is actually by design. This will allow
you to view the various modules later and be able to execute the specific attack without the
need to review the entire course from the beginning.
