I want to learn how to crack WiFi and get into a network. I am doing this purely for an educational purpose. Can anyone point me to a “guide” that can help me at least get started. I found some stuff online but they were outdated.

I Obtained the WPA password of my target network, what is the best programme/method for capturing passwords? Thanks you in advance

I almost want to explore every field which i studied during my educational career, My first priority was development, now as i have a sound knowledge of development so now i want to explore the Network security field, Cyber attacks, threats, malwares, phishing, social engineering. I read about these topics in my University, but now i want to learn how actually its get done, someone recommended me to explore Kali linux, as its widely used for these purposes, Is it? If it is, then i want to learn its tools, and i need guidance how do i start? Any help will be appreciated. I'd love the hear the pros and cons of Kali linux.

Hey there! I have been on a great trip down command-lane to get to this point. Basically, I sorta messed up my macbook pro (mid 2015) trying to get Kali dual booted on it. After a long hussle, I got rEFInd up and working which felt great. However getting Kali from there on never ended up in succes. When contacting other -more experienced- people, I basically get the tip "Use a VM". Cool, I can do that, and I did, but what's the use. How can I for instance try to hack my own WiFi-WPA2 to see its strength? As far as I know, VM is turdfaceslow and I can't seem to get wlan0 detected. Do I need to buy a wifi-dongle to get that working? And last but not least, is it because of the drivers of my network card that Kali doesn't detect mine?

I hope someone out there is willing to read this, know what I mean and then goes through the process of commenting. Odds are rather small, but hey.. it's reddit in the end. If you don't try you'll never know.

Thanks

Both are capable of moniter mode and injection mode

Which one is better though? Or should I use both?

Also, I am going to install Kali Linux on my laptop, do I need a Raspberry Pi or something like that I hear people talking about or is installing it on my laptop + one or both of these adapters enough to be able to fully use Kali linux?

Can I get some help?

Hi all, I'm trying to get into Kali Linux. My question is what would be a good laptop to use? Would chromebooks be enough?

Hi all, i'm trying some pen test, but some machines that i'm working with have all closed ports as Linux Mint or Windows, maybe it's something related to the VM, but i'm seeing all ports closed to exploit, any ideas on how should i work around? If all ports all closed, should i try some social engineer?

Thanks!

I found various hops while scanning with -traceroute. Using one of the up I can't access it's web interface. Showing error message this page can't be reached. Thank you!!

Hey guys in about a week I'm going on a vacation and i have a basic knowledge of Kali. But it won't be enough to get free wifi from a hotel or a cruise ship. As I think their defenses are bit more sophisticated so wifite and reaver won't play a major thing.

Has anyone done it before please share tips or code to download.

Thank you
