Course description

In a world without wires, security is often the weakest link. This course provides a tactical deep dive into Wireless Penetration Testing, moving beyond simple password cracking to sophisticated network exploitation.

You will learn the physics of Radio Frequency (RF) and how to use specialized hardware like Alfa Network adapters to sniff and inject packets. The curriculum covers the evolution of Wi-Fi security from the broken WEP and WPA2 protocols to the modern WPA3 standard. You will master advanced "Man-in-the-Middle" (MITM) attacks using Evil Twin access points, learn to bypass MAC filtering, and explore the vulnerabilities in WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). This course is essential for security auditors who need to ensure that an organization's invisible perimeter is as strong as its wired one.

What will i learn?

  • Audit Wi-Fi Encryption: Perform handshake captures and offline brute-force attacks using Aircrack-ng and Hashcat.
  • Deploy Rogue Access Points: Create "Evil Twin" networks to intercept credentials and perform DNS spoofing.
  • Bypass Network Controls: Evade MAC address filtering and identify hidden SSIDs.
  • Master Automated Tools: Use Wifite2 and Fern WiFi Cracker for rapid, automated wireless assessments.
  • Secure Wireless Infrastructure: Implement enterprise-grade security (802.1X) and configure WPA3 to mitigate common attack vectors.

Requirements

  • Intermediate knowledge of the TCP/IP stack and the OSI Model.
  • A laptop with a Linux-compatible wireless card that supports Monitor Mode and Packet Injection.
  • Proficiency in Kali Linux (specifically the command line).
  • Understanding of basic cryptographic concepts (Handshakes, Hashes, and Salting).

Frequently asked question

Most built-in cards do not support packet injection. We recommend purchasing an external USB adapter with an Atheros or Realtek chipset for the best experience.

No. We focus exclusively on professional, authorized auditing. All labs are performed on "vulnerable-by-design" routers in a controlled environment.

While the primary focus is 802.11 (Wi-Fi), we provide a bonus module on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) sniffing and common IoT wireless vulnerabilities.
