How To Crack 128-bit Wireless Networks In 60 Seconds
by Shawn @ 1:32 am · filed under Tech Stuff
Just for fun (since I'm a dork), I was looking for a wireless stumbler for Macintosh that
supported a GPS unit because I thought it would be interesting to map how many wireless
networks there are in my neighborhood (I usually can see 15-30 unique wireless networks from
any given point). In my search, I ran across one called kismac that does exactly what I wanted (it
even generates the maps for you, so I didn't need to code something to plot the GPS coordinates
on a map):
click image for larger view)
I download it and start playing around with it. It turns out it also has security testing functions
within it (although I would guess that most of the people using the cracking functions are just
trying to gain access to "secured" networks... which is beside the point I suppose).
Anyway, so I start monkeying around with those functions to see if I could learn something
about WEP encryption on my own 2 wireless networks (I have a Linksys WRT54G and an Apple
Airport Express which I use for beaming iTunes music to the living room stereo), both are
currently secured with 128-bit wireless security and I did not change anything in them for the
purpose of this video. My "word list" is just the standard dictionary word list that comes with
most any UNIX distribution (like Mac OS X) and resides in /usr/share/dict/.
So here's the scary part, from the time it started scanning for wireless networks to the time I was
able to crack both wireless network keys (which is all you need to gain access to the wireless
network), it took right around 60 seconds. Check out this video...
Okay, so what just happened here? I just cracked my two 128-bit wireless networks in
roughly 60 seconds from start to finish.
Even as a relatively knowledgeable tech guy, this seems like utter insanity to me. Okay,
obviously I didn't have some crazy, ultra-secure password for my networks, but I would guess
90% of all the wireless network passwords out there are based on simple (easy to remember)
word(s). After doing some reading, an "ultra-secure" password/MD5 seed would be relatively
useless anyway... all it would do is force the attacker to spend 10 minutes on it instead of 10
seconds (see this FAQ and this FAQ), all of which is easily done from the kismac Network
menu. It doesn't even matter if you setup your wireless network to be public or not, because
kismac can see it even if the base station isn't showing the SSID publicly.
I'm going to poke around and see how secure RADIUS authentication is for a wireless network,
but even if RADIUS is more secure, what normal person is going to have the technical
knowledge and an extra few thousand dollars to setup and run a RADIUS server for their
wireless network? I'm not even sure if I want to run a wireless network anymore to be honest...
or maybe shut them down except for the times I'm actually using them (talk about annoying
though).
UpdateNot sure why the content was deemed "inappropriate" for YouTube, but YouTube took
my video down. {shrug} Moved it to Google Video.

I wonder how fast it’ll brute force its way through WPA keys? I dont know much about
wireless security, but I thought WEP’s many flaws were the reason the industry replaced
it.

Check out the Security Now! podcasts. WEP encryption is trivially broken because of a
poor underlying design. You need to switch to WPA encryption.
I am certain that your WRT54G router is capable of WPA encryption - although I am not
sure if the Airport is.
3. Charlie Says:
So the point is that even with a higher strength password, say a combo of letters/numbers,
this would only take a few minutes more? Crikey!
So here is the defense against all those MPAA lawsuits? “My wireless network was
hacked… here’s how easy it is?”
Wow.
Thanks for making it simple.

hehe time to change my pass

5. Dustin Says:
If you use WPA you should be safe. It doesnt matter if you have SSID turned on or off
because as you said, there are programs to sniff that information. About the only thing
you can do is use WPA and generate a strong passphrase from somewhere like here.
https://www.grc.com/passwords.htm
6. Nicholas VonKrut Says:
Most APs have a mac address lockdown. It only allows the specified mac addresses on
the wireless network, full stop.
I think that solves all these problems.
7. Seungjin Says:
what wireless network card do you have?
cuz I know cards like broadcom’s can’t be used for cracking.
8. John Laur Says:
Few thousand dollars? Are you freaking insane?
I run DD-WRT and FreeRadius on a Linksys WRT54g at my house. I have WPA using a
preshared key and then 802.1x auth via RADIUS for authentication. The sum total I spent
on the hardware is $60
The weakness you are experiencing is not in WEP per se but in the algorithms used to
generate the hex key from other (easy to remember, easy to crack) sources such as
dictionary words. Furthermore, even on non dictionary words, some of these algorithms
have serious flaws that greatly reduce the amount of keyspace you need to search to find
a 128 (really 104) bit key.
If you want a secure password, get 104 bits of sufficiently random data, convert it to hex
and use that. Rotate it every few weeks or so. Even if you use WEP for this, you only
really expose yourself to certain weak frame vulnerabilities that are largely sewn up by
most NIC and AP wireless drivers these days, and they can’t easily be exploited without
listening to a great deal of wireless traffic.
A more fun solution? Wireless VLAN’s! Run one VLAN as a public honeypot with open
access to nothing. Run the second VLAN using a different SSID with broadcast disabled,
its own keys and 802.1x
9. Jack Says:
This is revealing, but also odd that WEP security is being discussed at all. WPA has
replaced it as the defacto standard in security nowadays and it’s quite solid/secure.
10. Keith Says:
It is actually very easy to crack into 128-bit networks, but nice post all the same…
11. Joe Says:
what kind of wireless card were you using?
12. Keith Says:
Is it really true that you are able to crack 256-bit WEP encryption on a wireless network
just by reading off the packets over the signal? Perhaps, instead of using WPA or WEP, it
might as well restricted to just MAC address authentication instead.
13. Wild Red Says:
So the question I have to ask is was your password a dictionary password? It seems from
the video that you used a dictionary file/list of common words.
14. CatLover Says:
If it’s just *your* network, it’s easy to lock it down securely. Just do what I do…allow
only your computers’ MAC addresses. No other security is necessary. If you’re still
paranoid or live in an urban setting, you can leave encryption running, but remember it
does slow the data a bit.
15. Ricky Says:
the ease of that is pretty scary, but even so I bet most people would find this too difficult.
Better hope you’re the only savvy person within the radius of your network!
16. Brian Says:
Which GPS unit have you been using? I am a kisMAC user, and I have been scoping out
a portable unit I can take out on the MTB, as well as being osx/kisMAC compatible.
Thanks!
17. Shawn Says:
It was an Airport card in a Macintosh. As far as WEP vs. WPA… I know that now, but 2
days ago I didn’t. I’m pretty technical, but security/hardware isn’t my deal, so I never
looked too much into it before. I just saw “128-bit encryption keys” in the setup and
thought that it would be good to go.
18. twit soldier Says:
Anyone who knows anything about security can tell you wep is handing out your
password, it broadcasts your password acrossthe network so anyone can crack it, wpa on
the other hand if you have a truely random password with the maximum allowed
charachters is unbreakable. I suggest you listen to Security Now podcast starting with
episode one. http://www.grc.com/securitynow.htm
19. twit soldier Says:
Also please not that your mac address is being broadcast as well so even if you restrict
mac addresses they can esily be spoofed even with the software that comes with your
adaptor so all one has to do is find out what valid mac addresses are on the network and
just start using one.
20. Savage Says:
MAC filtering offers no security whatsoever.
MAC addresses are actually not encrypted when sent over the air,
since they are the only reliable way of identifying a peer. Getting them
from network traffic is trivial and only needs a couple of frames.
MAC addresses are also trivial to spoof. On Linux it is just a configuration
file to tweak. On my WRT54G it is a configuration option.
Now if you want to run a nice DOS attack, you listen for MAC addresses
connecting to an access point and send End-Of-Traffic frames with a spoofed
MAC address several times per second. This effectively shuts down all Wifi
traffic for good on the access point.
21. allaun Says:
Its not that hard to put radius security on your linksys, DD-wrt is one example.
22. Tommy Says:
MAC filtering is close to useless as a serious security feature. It’s pretty easy to just sniff
the net, grab an authenticated MAC and use it.
23. Andrew Says:
Just a question- what wireless card are you using?
24. Andrew Says:
Whoops… I didn’t see your response in the comments.
25. Brian Moore Says:
I would also like to know what GPS device you use and how you connect it to your mac.
26. phil Says:
to all those people out there who think that MAC address restrictions will protect your
network … think again. a MAC address can be sniffed off the airwaves in seconds and
many wireless network cards allow you to change their MAC’s. it really is one of the
most useless forms of wireless security, and will only stop the most basic of ‘hackers’.
27. lagshot Says:
“Most APs have a mac address lockdown. It only allows the specified mac addresses on
“
Unfortunately this is not the case, as your MAC address is unencrypted in the header of
packets and can easily be sniffed and clone’d.
28. Humble idiot Says:
Disturbing! Some of us (TIVO users for example) don’t have the WPA option.
29. Jon Biddell Says:
WEP is generally used by home users who, through no fault of their own, don’t know any
better, or who have been advised to use it by lame-ass ISP’s.
Most of them wouldn’t know how tro secure an access point if their life depended upon
it.
A friend did some war-driving here in Australia - from his home to my office via the
middle of Sydney - plotted over 800 wireless access points, with over 50% completely
unbsecured, and of those that were secured almost 80% used WEP - and that included
some of the largest businesses in the CBD. He knew this, of course, because they were all
broadcasting their SSID, usually with a business name !!
You would be stunned to see how many had the default username/password combination
for admin still installed - tempting as it was to change this and shut their router down as
an object lesson in security, he had a better idea… He contacted several businesses and
informed them of their leaks, and now has a reasonably well-paying sideline in securing
wireless networks for home and small business users…
There is a lining in every silver cloud…

30. BennyTB9 Says:
Thanks Twit
As I was reading I was wondering if anyone else knew that even MAC address filtering is
not fool proof.
31. Jon Biddell Says:
BTW, MAC address locking is nice, but anyone with a basic knowledge of networking
and a good sniffer could spoof your MAC address in probably less time than it takes to
read this.
32. cYrus Says:
# Nicholas VonKrut Says:
Most APs have a mac address lockdown. It only allows the specified mac addresses on
all i can say is yea good luck with that theory… not heard of mac spoofing?
takes seconds to find stations assosiated with a ssid - mac address and all
33. cam Says:
This is old news. WEP has been cracked for a while now. Don’t use it.
34. xdevnull Says:
As above - a mac address is actually easier to hack than - much easier - than WEP -
which at least takes a little effort. If you’re not using WPA - with a good, long
passphrase, you might as well be open. The mac address would simply keep the average
passerby from using your wireless without any overhead, but is in no way “secure” and in
no way encrypted.
35. andrew Says:
you know what… MAC address filtering is not secure

(sorry, I couldn’t resist)
36. Anon Says:
A brute force attack on WEP works best if you collect 250k initialization vectors (IVs)
for a 40bit key, 1000k IVs for a 104 bit key. A dictionary attack takes only a few packets
but to defeat that all you need to do is make up fake words with special characters.
Example: Go/\way!
WPA doesn’t have the same failings as WEP but is is also vulnerable to a dictionary
attack if you can capture the 4-way handshake. An easy way to do that would be to
disassociate someone who is on and watch them reconnect. WPA also uses the SSID of
the access point in it’s encryption.
MAC filtering works fine till someone spoofs a valid MAC address.
37. JP Says:
“BTW, MAC address locking is nice, but anyone with a basic knowledge of networking
and a good sniffer could spoof your MAC address in probably less time than it takes to
read this.”
I think the real question is whether or not you have something worth stealing. If you are
in a place that has a high density of wireless signals, going with more security than none
is probably going to make 99% of the people around you just connect to a less secure
network. Just hope you don’t have any enemies…
“I’m not even sure if I want to run a wireless network anymore to be honest… or maybe
shut them down except for the times I’m actually using them (talk about annoying
though).”
Maybe its a better idea to put something over your antenna(s) that will block the signal
from any significant broadcast when you aren’t using them?
38. Brummy Says:
Mac spoofing is almost quicker than cracking 128web please dont rest easy with that as
an alternative there is no reason to not be running wpa as of right now there isnt a good
quick way to crack it..
Brummy
39. Andrew M Says:
The MAC address isssue is well documented.
As is the WEP issue.
WPA is more secure but serious crackers can find a way through that too.
Take solace in the fact that people looking for an unsecured wireless network will
generally settle for the first one they can crack, so if you use both MAC addresing and
WPA the likelyhood is they will crack you naber who uses neither.
40. gezick Says:
wpa and wpa2 are also easily brute forced. (look at h1kari’s recently published work)
but guess what else, locks can be picked, safes can be cracked. there are not completely
safe options, just deterrents.
wep is good enough, so is wpa, so is wpa2, so is mac address filtering. they all keep the
causal user off your network.
if you want security and privacy, don’t rely on the data link layer to provide it. the
application layer is far more useful. check out tor.eff.org
and don’t be so paranoid, probably no one cares what you’ve got on your network
anyhow
41. TAZ Says:
Just a suggestion, setup a vpn. For those a little more tech savvy and want a little bit of
fun buy a firwall such as a pix. I bougt mine for $400 on ebay and all my wireless traffic
is tunnelled out my hardwired network. Much higher encryption and much more secure -
but much more complicated then WEP or WPA. There was a really good article too on
digg where you deploy a squid proxy in your wireless zone where it will invert all the
graphics on the web and will really screw people up who hack into your network. Pretty
funny / fun stuff. WEP is out now as Cam said above. WPA is supposed to be better but a
simple google search will show you people have already worked around this as well.
42. Fred Says:
So are there any similar programs for windows? kismet is on linux and I’ve heard that,
that is the best program for this kinda stuff.
43. Hu Says:
I use MAC addresses whitelisting, the reason I think it would work is because lame kiddy
hackers won’t think of it, they might brute force for days and never cop on, its a nice on
top of wep etc.
44. rusty Says:
nice!! anyone know of a comparable program for windows (aka, lets you access a
wordlist directly from it)?
45. Jack Says:
I agree with cYrus… it is very simple to spoof a mac address and very easy to find what
mac address you need to spoof.. I have a laptop with built in wireless that has the ability
to spoof mac addresses built into the driver..
46. Bugs Says:
MAC addresses can be set on the property page of the network adapter (under Windoze)
and “nbtstat -a” or “arp -a” to recover another machines MAC.
47. foobar Says:
Welcome to 1999. Why are you still running WEP? Why not use WPA? Or WPA2?
48. Pegasus Says:
who cares you put the web key in your word list big deal
49. quiksilr Says:
As many of you have stated Mac Filtering is completely useless, spoofing a Mac Address
takes seconds. Allowing you access to the network.
WEP is useless. As stated, using either a weak dictionary word or a fully randomized
passphrase only slightly increases the amount of time required to crack it by a slight
margin.
WPA1 and WPA2 are becoming easily crackable as well. Check out CoWPAtty. They
recently came up with a huge 47 GB precompiled hash table at DefCon 14 that will crack
many WPA2 passwords in minutes.
For those stating that Broadcom cards can not be used to crack WEP you are partially
correct. The current Broadcom Airport Extreme cards can not enter promiscuous mode
but the latest version of Kismac can put the AirPort Extreme into passive mode (except
for MacBookPro and newest Mac Minis)
If this doesn’t work for your Airport Extreme you can also use the DLink DWL-122 usb
wireless adapter for cracking WEP keys. I have purchased and returned a ton of external
adapters until finding this one that works. Be careful not to purchase the DWL-122g, I
don’t think that that is supported.
Happy Hacking

Aside from everyone saying WEP is now replaced by WPA, which it is and should be in
any wireless network, alot of people are commenting saying that mac address filtering
will protect you. IT WON’T.
Firstly, spoofing a MAC address is a trivial matter, secondly, more of a security stand
point, just because you’ve blocked that computer’s MAC address, does not stop it from
sniffing ALL of your wireless network traffic, they could get all sorts of information, and
coupled with MAC spoofing and well crafted MITM attacks, could be in and out with
you passwords and creditcard numbers without you ever realising they were there.
Just don’t rely on MAC filters, use them, but don’t rely on them as your only means of
network security.

128 bit encryption cracked that fast, hmm. Should be interesting I think. Let’s check this
out.
Well, sorry to burst a bubble but nothing I’ve read here concerns cracking 128 bit
encryption. I’m not saying it can’t be done. I’m saying it’s not what was done. What was
accomplished here was a simple brute force password hack
A password hack is one of the most basic routines there is in the security field, even with
the standard three strikes lockout, so this is assuradly a lesson in why it is necessary to
use strong passwords
Once you claim root any commands you give will be obeyed but to crack 128 without
claiming root you must to be able to read network traffic “in the clear”.
If you can accomplish that in 60 seconds the NSA has a job for you.
Better luck next time

PowerBook users have real problems with WPA. I’ve not been able to fix mine since I

nice, but it goes deaf about every 5 minutes.
Any ideas?
58. pankaj Says:
let me add few words to it

Cracking WEP is not a new thing, because of weakness in its design. few reasons why
wep is weak are:
1. Same key is used forever (until one fine day you decide to change it!), there is no
concept of rekeying.
2. Also remember that 128bit key is not exactly 128 (128 is just a marketing number!), it
is actually 104 bits (which is the lenght of your password). Remaining 24 bits are called
Initialization vector (IV), this IV is incremented for every packet and this IV is combined
with your password to make it 128bit (and IV is visible to anybody with a sniffer, coz it
is sent with the packet without any encryption). Certain combinations of password and IV
generate something called WEAK keys, which help in cracking keys (search “FMS
attack” on google for more details).
3. Most important point: password that you enter, is finally used for encryption. which
means that if you crack key from one packet, whole network is yours .. wow!.
Solution of all these problems is WPA/WPA2, which addresses all these problems by:
1. lenght of IV increased to 48bits.
2. Built in mechanism for rekying.
3. New key is generated for every packet: so if you are able to crack key for one packet.
There is nothing useful u can do.
4. Password that u enter is not used for encryption, it is used (with lot of other info.) to
generate per packet keys as mentioned in #3.
I am sure cracking WPA is not simple as WEP, so for few years we can live in peace with
WPA/WPA2.
hope this info helps!
59. jimbo92107 Says:
MAC address filtering is kind of like painting the word “FENCE” on your doorstep.
WEP 64- or 128-bit encryption is like locking your screen door with a bathroom key.
WEP 256 is like locking your front door with an easily pickable deadbolt.
WPA is like actually having a fairly secure door. The strongest WPA makes your door
more secure than your walls.
Oh, and remember to write your password on a post-it and keep it in your desk drawer!

62. Tarragon Says:
Um, sorry to break it to you guys, but the “vulnerability” here affects WPA, and probably
more WPA than WEP. This a brute force passphrase hacking, not some kind of wire
sniffing trick (which is what WEP is vulnerable to, and takes a fair bit longer than 60
seconds).
Keep in mind that WPA is really just WEP with rotating keys, and little else.
WPA will NOT make you more secure. You need to use a secure passphrase otherwise
you are vulnerable to somebody guessing your passphrase. That’s not rocket science. It’s
got nothing to do with the relative security merits of WEP or WPA or WPA2. Use a crap
passphrase, you’ll be easy to hack.
It’d be like the CIA using “secret” for their password on their mainframe. It doesn’t
matter how bloody physically secure the mainframe is, or how well it encrypts it’s data,
when the password is the weak link.
In fact, last time I checked (which was a while ago) you can’t even _use_ a passphrase
with WEP - it expects a hex string.
So, please, people, stop thinking that WPA is the holy grail of security. It isn’t, by a long
shot. A WPA network secured with a passphrase of “bob” may as well not be secured at
all.
And of course, MAC filtering is basically useless, except as part of security in depth. It’s
worth enabling, but don’t rely on it to protect you because a dedicated attacker will get
through it easily.

Shawn, in your video, you are using a standard dictionary to crack your password. Nice.
If you want to have a secure network, then you use all of the 256 bits (or 64 ASCII
characters) of the passphrase to encrypt it (who sais you need to be able to remember it,
just create a completely random key and write it down).
That means, there are 2^256 possible combinations of ones and zeros your password can
contain, which means there are
11579208900000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
00000000 possibilities to go through. Having in mind that an up-to-date processor with 3
Gigahertz can do 3 000 000 000 operations per second, you can imagine how many..
uh… decades it would take to successfully crack that passphrase.
After all, you usually try other methods to gain access to the network than cracking the
passphrase anyway, but that’s a different story.

In response to you not using a wireless network anymore, you should just use Mac
address authentication or blocking. Just have your computers in the Mac address area of
the router. One top just use WPA or even WPA 2.0, WEP is out of date and just makes
people who aren’t technically inclined to not connect.
68. pankaj Says:
me add few words to it
Cracking WEP is not a new thing, because of weakness in its design. few reasons why
wep is weak are:
1. Same key is used forever (until one fine day you decide to change it!), there is no
concept of rekeying.
2. Also remember that 128bit key is not exactly 128 (128 is just a marketing number!), it
is actually 104 bits (which is the lenght of your password). Remaining 24 bits are called
Initialization vector (IV), this IV is incremented for every packet and this IV is combined
with your password to make it 128bit (and IV is visible to anybody with a sniffer, coz it
is sent with the packet without any encryption). Certain combinations of password and IV
generate something called WEAK keys, which help in cracking keys (search “FMS
attack” on google for more details).
3. Most important point: password that you enter, is finally used for encryption. which
means that if you crack key from one packet, whole network is yours .. wow!.
Solution of all these problems is WPA/WPA2, which addresses all these problems by:
1. lenght of IV increased to 48bits.
2. Built in mechanism for rekying.
3. New key is generated for every packet: so if you are able to crack key for one packet.
There is nothing useful u can do.
4. Password that u enter is not used for encryption, it is used (with lot of other info.) to
generate per packet keys as mentioned in #3.
I am sure cracking WPA is not simple as WEP, so for few years we can live in peace with
WPA/WPA2.
hope this info helps!

71. SecureMyWiFi Says:
Use SecureMyWiFi from WiTopia (www.witopia.net). It gives you the same wireless
security big companies and government use (WPA-Enterprise) for 9.99 a year. None of
that other stuff works. WPA-personal/psk is considered “okay” but is still weaker than
WPA-Enterprise and must be managed.
Your AP must be able to support the enhanced security, but most all newer (last 3 years)
do such as most Linksys, D-Link, and Apple…as well as many others.
It also supports 802.1x and 802.11i as well as what manufacturers may call WPA-
RADIUS (Linksys) or WPA-EAP (D-Link)
Bottom line is when you use the service..you needn’t worry about any of that crap.
72. Fitzy Says:
Check out this howto for building a Radius Server to use with your wireless network. It
uses WPA-Enterprise which rotates the key every couple of minutes. About as secure as
you can reasonably be at the moment!

Ok all here is the true design of secure wireless networks.
WPA2 - uses AES encryption still weak but no as weak as WEP or WPA
WEP & WPA both use the weak RC4 encryption technique
get an access point that uses WPA2 and set that up. disable SSID or not doesnt matter.
Setup a linux box with 2 network cards in it. Install FreeRADIUS and OpenVPN. Setup
OpenVPN with an AH(Authentication Header(protocol 51)) using SHA1 and ESP
(Encapsulated Security Protocol(protocol 50))
using 3DES encryption and a key lifetime of 60 Minutes. Have OpenVPN connect to
FreeRADIUS for authentication. Install OpenVPN on the client and setup to tunnel
everything. connect one network card to your internal network and connect the other
cable to the Access Point(should be X-over Cable). Use OpenVPN to close the bridge
between the internal and external networks.
if someone cracks your WPA2 encryption so what. They wont crack an IPSec tunnel with
a key lifetime of 60 minutes.
Dont trust others with your security trust only yourself.
because remember I dont have to be the most secure! Only more secure then you.

The best way to secure your network is to have it hardwired, not wireless.
While any ding-dong with a laptop and wi-fi card can, given the desire and enough time,
crack your wireless network from down the street, it’s a whole ‘nother matter for them to
physically splice into your CAT5-e cables without committing felony burglary and
risking getting caught.
So, unless you’re a genius inventor with a way of turning water into gasoline, or a
political thought-criminal of the Bush Regime, you’re not going to have to worry about
someone breaking into your house to place a covert node into your wired network. :p
Wired home networks are virtually immune to interference, covert tapping, or the other
hassles associated with wi-fi.
Old school still rules! Wireless is for the lazy bastards who can’t be bothered with a little
work with cables and crimpers.
87. Elron Says:
A friend of mine with a network said this:
Two things that will stop this.
Don’t use WEP unless you are ASKING for your network to be cracked.
Don’t broadcast your SSID. That’s like saying “He’s the portcullus … try and break in”.
If you have WPA encrypytion and don’t broadcast your SSID, your saying “These’s a
secret door somewhere in this dungeon …. try and find it. Oh, and by the way … the lock
on that secret changes itself every 10 seconds”.

I looked at cracking WEP a while back and it really takes Linux with two network cards.
That means that “normal” people won’t be cracking your network–only those who are
more tech savvy or they wouldn’t know Linux. That means if they WANT to crack into
your security they WILL, no matter what.
But why waste time on your little home network that has letters to grandma? The serious
crackers go after the companies where they can actually use the information they retrieve.
And if they wanted to retrieve info from home networks, why not pick one of the millions
of unsecured home networks out there you can find in any neighborhood?
That means you really only have to be concerned about the person who has a little bit of
knowledge and wants to experiment. To keep those people out of your network, the
above mentioned ideas will keep all the Windows and Macintosh users out–Hide the
SSID, WPA, MAC Address Filtering, etc. These are available on most routers as standard
options for the “normal” person and don’t take a lot of money and resources to set up.
Of course, if you’re stupid enough to use a simple password, then basic Macintosh
programs like the one in the video will get through. You deserve whatever happens after
that!

For the hardy, get yourself a Soekris box (http://www.soekris.com/) and build your own
router or wireless AP/router ( get compatible minipci wireless card at
http://www.netgate.com). You can put a laptop hard drive in them but a compact flash
installed with ram file system is better for running 24/7/375 but more challenging. Install
OpenBSD and write your firewall rules to use authpf for authentication on the gateway.
Now, someone has to authenticate with ssh to your router or wifi AP before they can go
anywhere. There are howto’s on the net. You can even direct non- authenticated users to
a web server that comes with the default OpenBSD installation with a page telling them
whatever you want.
Now you don’t have to worry about someone cracking your WEP. You can even have an
open access point but put the wireless interface on a subnet isolated from your regular
network. I just finished mine and it rocks!

for all you n00bs have look at an ASCII to hex table and look at all the characters that
arent in a dictionary
as a hint try
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#ASCII_control_characters
these make really good characters to put into a hexidecimal version of your wep key
cos its impossible to type them into a form and thereby pretty hard to get them into a
dictionary attack
try craking the following wep for example
7F:1C:00:08:11
I doubt that will take 60 seconds more like 24 hours on a brute force attack on a hard
hitting dual processor machine
wep is aight if your choose your cipher well, even a blind man can see that
114.Psycode Says:
Some people still seem to be missing the point that real “attacks” don’t count on
dictionary files. It doesn’t matter if you use non printing chars in a situation where the
key is still being sent over a public authentication system(airwaves) the key is not
guessed, it is extracted from large volumes of reconnection attempts (or other network
traffic) from clients (or spoofed to look like from valid clients) on the network. It is not
heuristic or even statistical it is definite, it just takes time.
Thats my understanding anyway…

121.Frankie Says:
Quit whining about WEP. Everyone knows that it is weak.
Funny thing about WPA and MAC address protection on your networks. Unfortunately, it
isn’t very secure. If you are using either Auditor or Backtrack, slackware based
distributions of linux, you are capable of breaking into both. Anything can be broken,
regardless of how strong we believe the encryption is, some just require more technical
know-how.
However, your average home user shouldn’t worry about this kind of stuff. So what if
your neighbor decides they want free Internet… rotating your WEP / WPA keys is a good
idea anyway, just like any other password. Many people believe that MAC address
selection is a safe-way to eliminate any hacker from entering your network.
Unfortunately, the above mentioned distributions of linux are capable of detecting,
deauthorizing, and spoofing known MAC addresses on the network.
Besides, if your goal is to break into Wifi on the road, understand that it is a crime to
break in. “War Driving” as illegal as it may seem is not because it only identifies the
networks, rather than trying to break in and authenticate yourself. If you have any
cellphone company, consider saving yourself the time from actually learning how to
operate your computer and get an EDGE enabled wireless card and have broadband
speed Internet wherever you go, without the risk of breaking the law, or the effort.
To test the validity of this article, I attempted to break into my own network. To simulate
a home environment, I turned off all but one of my computers on wireless and in about 10
minutes it is possible… remember this article assumes massive network traffic is
continuous, which we know not to be the case in any wireless network that is not heavily
populated. By using an active attack, (packet reinjection) after a suitable packet is found,
it is possible to break a 128 bit WPA key in about 10 minutes, which utilized a “strong”
password generator.
Face the facts, if you are worried about network security, unplug your computer.
122.Carsten Says:
@Frankie: Get real, breaking into Wi-Fi security has nothing to do with your linux distro.
You can do this on all kind of linux flavors (Mac as well, as this post proves), and there
exists plenty of different software and wifi chipsets to use. I tend to use the aircrack-ng
suite, I’ve yet to see a 128 bit wep password I cannot break.
WPA is still considered pretty secure, but it is not uncrackable, instead of launching a full
frontal attack on the crypto it is possible to de-authenticate users and record their
authentication attempts and break it from there.
But of course it is illegal to break into other peoples Wi-Fi networks, that is why you
should only try this on YOUR own net.
123.specter Says:
if you need wireless communication and want it to be secure i have an alternative. it is

for security… Firewall your wireless leave it as open as you like and handle the access
past that point the only downside is somone could use you as a relay - Maybe you could
use low lvl security for a deterant but ultimately dont rely on the AP for your security
rely on a good firewall (free one like Pfsense on an old box - or even somthing with an
imbedded firewall with captive portal abilities or https security access.. ) anyway thats

For all of those asking about Windows, the OS doesn’t allow full monitor mode of the
network card so this won’t work. There’s some custom drivers (commercial) that will
allow auditing under Windows, but otherwise you’ll need to use a different OS
(especially Linux-based).

[…] Last week I treated myself to a new macbook & blew the change I had on a Digital
camera to keep it compnay. I’ve hada wireless router for a few years (linksys
WAG354G) and never used it till now. It turns out it only offers 128bit WPA encryprion
which can apparently be cracked in 69 seconds (see link) How To Crack 128-bit Wireless
Networks In 60 Seconds I can’t really afford a new router just yet & even if I could I
wouldn’t know which to get. I’m going to have to wait at least a month till I can upgrade.
In the mean time I’m loving being able to surf the web on my macbook from anywhere in
the house. I have wep on and have set the router to only allow the MAC address from teh
macbook. I’m using complex passwords containing numbers, punctuation, upper &
lowercase letters. Any ideas on what else I might be able to do to secure my network?
Suggestions most welcome. […]

Someone asked how long it would take to brute force your way through WPA. WPA has
a sufficient encryption key recycling time of about 900 billion years (compared to the 72
some-odd hours of a high-bit WEP) before it repeats itself. So, unless you get lucky,
you’d need about 3 or 4 complete cycles and sufficient processor power to analyze all
that data for a more efficient brute force.
Please correct me if I was misinformed or my data is off.

was good there is couple of package program’s to collect internet package throught
wireless connection and if you really want to secure your internet in nice easy way,i
know some trick’s would help you and need to worry even if they have those program’s
but in all way’s even if your wireless connection was secure… was wpa=psk or wpa-

Several things here… first off WPA can be cracked very easily as well. I cracked the one
here at my rental office by letting the programs run and capture packets on a light traffic
day in a few hours. Also, don’t be tricked into thinking your MAC address filter will
work either because you can change your MAC address to one that is like 1 number off
of the routers MAC and it will accept it because it believes it is it’s own. Wireless isn’t
safe regardless but it’s a hell of a lot easier to use. Don’t go putting TOP SECRET files
on your network if it’s wireless though! Use it for your ease of access.

To all who are directly asking, “how do I hack my neighbors wireless,” are you really
that stupid? You obviously figured out how to turn on your computer and can type a
semi-legitimate sentence; try google, yahoo, or ask.com and you’ll find your ‘how to.’
To the ones with program questions you might want to try using the documentation files
from the website where you downloaded it from! Most of them have their own forums
specifically for their software…
Remember, every day is a good day to loose your data and your shit is only as ‘secure’ as
you want to believe it is. Encrypt everything and back it up regularly or it ain’t yours no

ok first off there is no password what so ever uncrackable, You are never safe. With
about 40/mb tables set up you can crack any passy within 10 minutes max on a decent pc.
IP can be spoofed and Mac address can to. I been teaching myself on google for years.
Now you can disable it when not in use and dl a program to monitor when your on it and
it will alert you when someone starts use but you cant stop it without shutting down. That
said anyone with to much time on their hands can and will crack into your wireless
period. It will never stop, new encryption hackers find new faults, as simple as that
207.tHE bEST Says:
The best thing you can do is the following:
Leave your wireless SSID as public Free access point BUT! only allow the MAC address

210.Anonymous4U Says:
WEP isn’t really secure, its more of a deterrent. If you do switch to WPA, make sure that
you don’t use dictionary words and change your network name to a non-standard one.
And for those people who say “brute force the wpa”. Yeah, right. The time basically
becomes infinite (even with a quad core computer) with passwords greater than 12
characters.
What really works for wpa is forced deauthentication and then watching for the
handshake as clients connect. When you do that, you can use existing wpa tables (about
33 GBs) to find the key.
Only two (fairly) secure platforms exist: wpa2/wpa using a radius server or a NON-pre
shared key for wpa2/wpa.
And, I’m pretty sure that you need a better/more well supported wireless card for
kisMAC. Doesn’t Mac use Intel based chipsets (which aren’t very well supported for
injection).
Basically, those who see this and think “oh, lolCo4sTeR!!!111; I’m gon4 H4xx0rz some
networks!!!111″ likely doesn’t have the patience or time to figure out how to really get it
set up (at least on linux they wouldn’t….mac maybe with a diff adapter).

up with these notices and I can’t figure out how to get past them:
KisMAC is not able to load the Apple Airport driver, if you killed it by loading the Viha
driver. Try restarting KisMAC.
and after hitting “OK” ten times it says:
KisMAC was able to load the driver backend for Airport Card, but it was unable to create
an interface. Make sure your capture device is properly plugged in. If you think
everything is correct, you can try to restart your computer. Maybe your console.log and
system.log show more details.

Why worry about security from your network layer? I always assume my networks are
unsecured. Lock down your data. Lock down access to your systems. Your network can
be accessed by any id10t with an ethernet cord. Wireless just means that the “intruder”
does not need to pick your front door to get access. Assume your not secure, and work
from there.
Of course this is overstating the issue. Firewalls are better than not. WPA2 is better than
unsecured, etc. But they just keep honest people honest. True security is an ever vigilant
battle.
My advice is always assume you are on a “hostile” network and you are starting from a
better place.

Don’t Trust anything is secure, even if it’s in a vacuum sealed safe, but especially don’t
trust anything with a door that never closes like the Internet.
Having said that, don’t get annoyed because it probably is in your best interest to turn of
your wireless router when you’re not using it, you may have an old router that doesn’t
support WPA2-PSK, and maybe WEP is still all that you can use to encrypt your wireless
traffic.
Whatever the reason, have some fun with it. Since we’re on the topic of security, create a
new home security system for yourself. Buy a motion sensor, connect it to the power
source for the power strip that powers your cable model and wireless router, and magic…
peace of mind.
Peace.
Extra Credit… Just one more step to create a makeshift home security system… add e-
mail to self and you’ll possibly even figure out how to snap a photo or video of your cat
every time he decides to test your security system for you…
(If you have no cat, or anything else that moves in your home when you are not there,
then you are likely worrying about your home being broken into right now because you
haven’t done this yet and you’re not home now. If you are home, then there’s no need to
worry about anyone breaking into your home, because you are there… that is unless
THEY are coming after you, then you should be worried because THEY are coming after
you, panic.
NOW.
PANIC!!!!
RUN.

from spying on your eBay transactions, which probably won’t make you any more

247.Protecting a wireless network | Soapster.co.uk - the Blog! Says:
[…] Encrypting your wireless connection First things first - there are two main types of
Wi-Fi security you can use to protect your wireless network: WEP (Wired Equivalent
Privacy) and WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access). My recommendation is to only use WPA
since WEP can be cracked in under 60 seconds with software readily available on the
internet. WPA isn’t entirely unbeatable if it uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
but it requires a much more determined and knowledgeable hacker with some very heavy
duty software and hardware and can take a very, very long time to overcome assuming a
random key is used (I’ll get to that later), if it can be beaten at all. 99.99% of people and
businesses do not have to worry about that kind of attention and those that do should also
know how to defeat them! […]

251.Matthew Says:
The problem with WEP is it broadcasts it’s password, so it’s practically yelling out the
password for anybody who knows how to listen. That is pretty much the biggest reason
WPA is around. MAC Address filtering is a great idea, but if somebody knew what they
were doing they could still get in if they knew a mac address on the list, and they spoofed
it. A nice program I use is Network Magic, Cisco bought out the company that originally
made it and it’s got some pretty good options to secure your network, such as locking out
your network until a PC that has Network Magic allows it in. The only downside is all the
PCs have the have it installed to get the full advantage that it has to offer.

Have you tried to activate a MAC filter? If you filter the connections by a MAC address
even if someone crack the password… it would be useless… He’ll have to know at least
one of your MAC addresses to access your wireless network… One other way to make
your wireless LAN more secure, is to lower the broadcast power to the minimum that will
actually cover perfectly inside your home (ok, your room mostly), but will fade fast going
through the walls…

Many of the high end wireless vendors (enterprise class) feel wireless is pretty much total
insecure, regardless of what encryption scheme you use - especially for highly sensitive
networks at hospitals and such.
For those types of networks, the better equipment can enforce a client-to-gateway VPN
before it’ll allow wireless traffic to flow through the firewall. SonicWALL does this. You
can crack the wireless encryption, but it won’t do you a lick of good since you can’t
move any traffic through the wireless access point until you have established a VPN to
the gateway from your PC. Since no one has ever compromised a 3DES VPN (and you
shouldn’t use anything less!), you’re secure enough to move any sensitive data you like.
The down side is that enterprise class wireless equipment isn’t cheap. Even the smalled
SonicWALL wireless unit will run you $500 or so. On the plus side, the wireless is more
reliable than consumer grade equipment. Dropped signals with enterprise class units are
rare, where they’re so normal with consumer grade equipment that people don’t even
think it’s odd that they have to reassociate their station every few hours or few days, or
power-cycle their access point, which is just pathetic. As the saying goes, you get what
you pay for.
273.Paul Says:

hackerpro:
128 and 256-bit encryption are military grade. If they’re not compromised by a silly
mistake, they are all but unbreakable. The math on brute forcing encryption at 128-bits is
readily available online. This page shows the math clearly:
http://www.inet2000.com/public/encryption.htm
And that is just 128-bit. Every bit you add doubles the complexity (and thus the time) to
break. By the time you get to 256-bit, you might as well just forget it with current (or the
foreseeable future) technology. Even decades from now, it’ll be impossible to break 256-
bit encryption in anything close to a reasonable amount of time.
128-bit encryption is used for many things, but most people encounter is most commonly
via secure websites. Online banking, online shopping, etc. Whenever you see a website
address with https:// before it, that is SSL (secure sockets layer) - 128-bit encryption.
IPSec VPNs (virtual private networks) use 128-bit encryption as well, though they can
use higher levels of encryption if so desired. Most people encounter VPNs if their
employer allows them to work remotely.
Do some research before you post such nonsense. You don’t have a clue what you’re
talking about.

I have Mid 07 macbook, 10.5.8, 2.16 Ghz intel core 2 Duo, Airport Extreme, I am using
kismac ver 0.2.99. When I select any Apple driver in the “Preference” (the “injection”
option is grey, so I can not check it, I unloaded & reloaded app like crazy), I then start
scanning, I can see the wireless network but can not “inject”. I get the “Injection Driver”
error. It seems to me that the drivers this program has are no good? So a few questions,
1. Did Apple disable passive mode for the wireless cards?
2. Can I get the driver for the wireless card, if so how/where can I place the driver so the
program can use it?
3. Is there a better program for Apple computers?

ensure security with a home or small office network that is. When you not using it turn it
off….. Remember you dont need the best of the best security all you need is better
security than the links in your area. A hacker will mostly attack the weakest network.
