WEP Attack | Wi-Fi Pentesting

WEP Attack | Wi-Fi Pentesting



While the security behind WEP networks was broken in 2005, modern tools have made cracking them incredibly simple. In densely populated areas, WEP networks can be found in surprising and important places to this day, and they can be cracked in a matter of minutes. We'll show you how a hacker would do so and explain why they should be careful to avoid hacking into a honeypot.

Often one of the first wireless attacks a hacker will learn, WEP networks in your area can be tracked down with only a few software tools and cracked with a network adapter supporting packet injection. While WEP cracking has always been relatively straightforward, the simplicity with which it can be found and broken in 2018 brings it firmly into the abilities of even the most novice of hackers.

While still much more rare to see than open or WPA-encrypted networks, the evolution of tools like Wigle Wifi allows anyone with an Android phone to identify WEP networks for themselves simply by walking or driving by one. Even easier than doing this in person is to simply look at online wardriving databases which clearly show the location of these networks.
