WiFi Password Cracking with Kali

This document provides steps to capture WiFi traffic and crack WPA2 passwords using airodump-ng, aireplay-ng, wireshark, and aircrack-ng on Kali Linux: 1) put the wireless interface into monitor mode, 2) use airodump-ng to find the access point's MAC and channel, 3) launch a deauthentication attack with aireplay-ng while capturing packets with airodump-ng, 4) open the capture file in wireshark to filter for EAPOL messages, and 5) crack the password with aircrack-ng using a wordlist like rockyou.txt.
